I did some research awhile ago and it seems the top choices for towing mirrors are the Grand Aero 3, and the McKesh towing mirrors. I was leaning towards getting the Grand Aero 3s.

I have a 1995 F350, so I don't think I can install OEM towing mirrors. Is that correct?

Let me know if you have thoughts on what the best towing mirrors are.



Thanks

 

I'll pass on both, and install some west coast style mirror like mirror 2 or 3 below.

 

Thanks, where can I get those?

 

What many guys do, is use the swing lock 2 point mirror arms and use the larger gooseneck style mirror heads, I love mine

 

Mrollings53 chart type 8 OEM towing mirror

 

I want to see the number 12 on a truck

 

So where is the best place to buy these kinds of mirrors?

 

1997 Ford F750, Salem OR - 121872756 - CommercialTruckTrader.com

 

The Junk yard , Craigslist

 

That didn't work. Unless you have to sign up

 

Is there a diagram or measurement as to where the lower holes are to be drilled when using the mirrors in this pic? I have a set and would like to use them but the way they lay when checking from side to side is different so one of the set of arms is tweaked a bit. I know I could go to a salvage yard to find some on a truck and measure them, but if there is a spec, I would rather have that. They are great because they can flip in and out for clearance.

 

The 2 top holes are already there(if you have sport mirrors) then the two bottom ones will just lay out where they will

 

I am not signed up for anything and the link works just fine

Only thing is with the type 8, if anything hits the mirror arms, it'll damage the door, they do not fold in at all, mine came with them, one was ripped clean off, other damaged the door, which now needs replacing
