Btw, I picked up a set of Type 2 mirrors from the JY.. its got cracked glass but the stainless steel is cherry. I taped up the cracked glass so i can take it to a shop and have new mirrors cut.
Lift? Sure I can probably comment on that. I'm here to help and learn. I know I don't know everything but I try to learn from everybody.... just read over in the Bumpside forum how to replace 2WD radius arm bushings by pulling the front suspension forward with a come-along. Totally shadetree but it freakin' works.
Do your homework and shoot me a PM when yer ready and we'll coordinate... !

Hey collinft,
Here's an image of what looks to be Type 7 mirrors. The kid just got the rig, posted on FTE, and is gonna tear into it and drop in a Mopar powerplant. Maybe he can shoot you some measurements or the actual mirror if it is the correct one. By your description however, the mounting locations appear to be the same as the Type 9 mirrors.
