Re: what kind of out side mirrors do you have
I think these would do real nice on a big 4 X 4 truck.
I want to put more of a sport mirror on myself.

Re: what kind of out side mirrors do you have
as far as real mirros, to be used on a truck used as a truck.... these big fugly things flat out rock
![]() ![]() and when you are towing, or when you only have the ohne mirror on that one door and you have too much junk in the back and can't look over your shoulder out the back window, you can swing them out REAL far like this, and almost see around the back of the truck. ![]() Here's what I have now. They are literally worthless if you are towing, or if you think you wanna use them for backing up, and for normal driving, they are one step above worthless... but man they look cool. |

Re: what kind of out side mirrors do you have
At first I didn't like big mirrors but after some time I like them now. Big mirrors and quet exhaust add that special touch when I am passing new trucks or suvs.

Re: what kind of out side mirrors do you have

Re: what kind of out side mirrors do you have
I think the stock mirrors n the 67's are much better functionaly than the 72 sport mirrors. Do want to use them or have them look neat? Function/safety over looks.

Re: what kind of out side mirrors do you have
I've got the larger ones,
there not as sporty as the small mirrors but are functional.

Re: what kind of out side mirrors do you have
What mirrors to us definitely depends on what you expect of them. I haul things occasionally with my K20 so I've got a quality set of big/stable mirrors
![]() I used to have the smaller style tripod mirrors and they shaked so bad they we worthless for me.

Re: what kind of out side mirrors do you have
I got a peep mirror and plan to get another for the other side. I don't like the really bgi ones but the regualr size ones are ok for me. The PO filled the holes on the doors so I figure I will leave it that way since it is already done and clean looking.

Re: what kind of out side mirrors do you have
mine are off a 73 I believe they are smaller than 72 sport mirrors. They look nice but passenger side is almost not useable

Re: what kind of out side mirrors do you have
Original styles are cheap enough new at the resto shops. Prolly cheaper than the big RV mirrors to.
