know of any better mirror setups (for towing) for the pre-99's? The little mirrors stink for towing and I don't necessarily want to put the huge tripod, drill holes in the door setups.
Saw one set of electric ones that moved in and out, but they were way way to proud of them for $400 - $600

Brian-
I don't know how much towing you do, so I don't know if getting something permanently mounted is the right way for you to go or not, but I just bought some **** mirrors for towing for my truck. They slip over the existing mirrors, and extend out about 8-10" on each side, giving me enough "wingspan" to see around an 8' wide TT. They work pretty well, and when I'm not towing, they sit in a box in the garage. One of the nicest things is you don't drill or mark up the truck when putting them on, so there's no permanent damage done. If you're interested in more details, send me an email.

Quad,
Ya, thats what I wound up going with. They do ok, would like bigger or the ability to move them out further from the truck.
Did ya see I got the reverse shackle kit put on with the Rancho 9000X's ?

Much better now. Trying to get the in-the-cab adjuster setup and to quit leaking, the kit is a pain in the azz.
