Passenger trailer mirror "Stuck"

Morning everyone!

Just bought a 99 F250 CC last weekend. Love it so far.

Noticed last night that the passenger side mirror was extended all the way out. Tried pushing it back in. Nothing. Stuck TIGHT. Looked at the driverside mirror, slides in and all the way out.....no problems.

Passenger mirror appears to have some minor differences when compared to drivers mirror. Is it possible the previous owner replaced it with a non slide unit?

I might be mistaken, but I thought that the 99's mirrors did not telescope. 2000 (99.5?) and up got the telescoping mirrors.

That's correct. My 2000 has the telescoping mirrors and the 99's did not. It's likely that the driver's side mirror has been replaced on his truck with one from a 2000 model.

Thanks guys. I appreciate it. Time to search e-bay for a new passenger mirror.
