You will need the brackets for the mirrors to work without serious vibration and some weakness, some brand of mirrors come with them included while others do not.

They will still bolt on, but you want the brackets.

Make sure you get the 2nd gen mirrors not the 3rd gen ones

They should.... The second gen's went till 2002 on the 3/4 and 1 tons, so they should fit, and have the brackets.

You will never regret buying them, probably one of the greatest addons for the truck so far for me.

Check your local body part suppliers as well. I know the ones we sell come with the brackets. Our catalog even specifies that the 01+ mirrors can be used to upgrade 2nd gens. Most places will do over the counter sales if you go to them. I'll be snagging a set when the extra cash is there. The factory mirrors suck for visibilty.
