Mirror suggestions - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anybody have any recomendations on mirrors for my blazer. I plan to use it to do some towing so I'd like some size. I know most folks run the sport mirrors, but I think I'd like to run some larger mirrors. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Mid 80s-90s Ford swing lock mirrors.

Thanks I'll check that thread. I've been lurking a little, but working a lot. I bought a pull behind trailer that I plan to pull with the blazer. I"ve kind of been taking a break, but I drove her a good bit today and I'm ready to get back on track. I'll get some pics of the blazer pulling the trailer when we go out on some practice runs. The steering has been so loose, that pulling a trailer is kind of scary.

Do you have an pics of our year trucks or blazers with the mirrors you are talking about? Interested.

I looked but couldn't find the thread. I'm interested in pictures, too. I'd like to dump the tripod-mount mirrors that are on mine if I can find a nice substitute.

I don't have any pics but the following appear to be referenced Ford swing lock:

The 88-91 Blazer/Suburban had power mirrors as an option. They are kind of rae and can be expensive. There is a web page to upgrade them to heat and signal but that's more expensive. I was considering putting Hummer @ power/heat/signal mirror but not sure if I want to put a hole in the door.

The green Blazer in my profile picture has the Ford style mirrors if you want to see what they look like.
