you will have an awful lot of room there to put a delete why not try to do a conversion from like a 91 burb with the mirrors like that

i WAS THINKING OF THE SAME IDEA. WELDING IN A SOLID PIECE OF METAL AND BOLTING ON A LARGE MORE MODERN EXTENDED TOWING MIRROR. i AM KIND OF FOND OF THE FORD, AS IT IS MORE SQUARE FOR A SQUARE BODY TRUCK.

yeah thats my thought exactly. i know it'll be a lot of room blocked there but i think it will be worth it with a big mirror. i'm looking to do the dodge flip up tow mirrors
