Mirrors

I have searched but unable to verify if Type 7 and Type 9 mirrors mount the same. Can you interchange them on a truck?

Not only do they mount the same. The arm spacing is the same. No need to drill new holes.

That is very generous of you, @Christmas . Was your inbox hammered with requests for the mirrors?

Only had one person who said he wanted them. When I asked for his address to work up the shipping cost there was no response. They are in fairly good shape and will clean up nicely.

Anyone know the mounting hole spacing on the '80s-'90s F-series Type 9 mirrors? I know it's different than the '70s mirrors, but by how much? I've been looking for a show-quality set of Type 9 mirrors for my '73 for ages with no luck, but the '80s-'90s mirrors seem to be plentiful in these parts.

This from LMC 80-96

They really aren't close enough to attempt trying to make fit.



Get the 73-79 mirrors from them or NPD. We've been happy with ours.
