VERY NICE! IMO the standard mirrors look better from the front, but I've always wanted the tow mirrors for the extra rear vision. The standard mirror w/defrost only came on a non tow pkg. with rear window defrost.
A very few of you may remember the Happy Days episode where Fonzi asks Ritchie's opinion on his bike mirrors. Ritchie says they are more functional when sticking out horizontally. Fonzi says he doesn't care what's behind him; he wants to look cool where he's going! LOL Frenchy (Fonzi)

Thanks for the info.
this kit will work on your truck or a lifted one. if you look at the top bracket it can be flipped if necesssry. the thing about this kit is it's compact. on any air bag make sure the outside diameter is not to big that it would hit the frame when it's positioned in the center of the leaf springs.
