Looking for Outside Mirrors

(1/1)

LT:
I am looking to attach a set of rear view mirrors on my 56 wide gauge.   Does anyone have any suggestions as to what type of mirror you would recommend?   

Cranman:
Have never had much luck with mirrors in the bush but recently tried a Canadian Tire Back up camera on my plow truck and it seems to work quite well. It has warning lines on the image for 4 foot, 8ft and 16 feet straight out the back, so will be ideal for hooking up a sleigh. To keep the camera out of the blowing snow and away from sticks It likely would need to be well above the back door.

Swamp Dawg:
I've seen a couple with Jeep Wrangler style mirrors.  The work well because they have a flat mounting flange, similar to the side of a bombardier.

the old trucker:

  How about the older GM. pickups. The (80's) just had a sort of triangular block mounted to the door with the mirror hanging off it. Here's a couple of pics of the 80's GM. These are on ebay now...

 OT's looking back.

  I personaly like the small round ones that Oldsledz has on his B12... OT.
