jeep mirrors
« on: February 03, 2004, 06:30:48 AM »
Any body ever put Jeep mirrors on their zuk?  I have an SJ and it currently has some cheesy aftermarks on it.  Or maybe some of you have a pair of stock SJ mirrors you need to get rid of?

I'll try to get a pic up but I found the perfect size mirror that is just a tad smaller than a jeep mirror. I found it at PepBoys for only $12. It's chrome and stainless with a rectangular head. Comes with an arm and everything to mount it. I mounted it off of my winshield light mount tab.

yeah I get it.  What about everybody running YJ leaf springs?  Original SJ410 mirrors are highly prized.  I wouldn't replace them if I had the oem's, but these are some aftermarket ones and they don't stay in the right position.

87BlackSami,
That would be great  ;) I'd like to see the pics of those mirrors from Pep Boys.  My pass side mirror is all but useless since I moved it off the door to the "doorless mirror bracket". thanks

Check out my site at this link: http://www.quickvwbug.4wdriver.com/photo.html

You'll see why I had to get a new mirror. If you need a better pic I'll try to get one.

Thanks for the link  :D . I like that mirror, guess you don't know if they had a mate for the passenger side eh?

BTW that's a real nice, clean looking hardtop you've got there!

That wasn't from a tree. It was from a rock when it rolled at Paragon last September.

Actually you could use it on either side depending on how you mount it. I can get by without it and it's easier to pull in one mirror instead of worrying about two.

The hard top has a little of the usual rust but the thing runs great. I got it cheap because it quit running on the guy. In about an hour I found the problem. After doing compression check and seeing that they were all the same, just real low 30psi., I figured it had to be valve timing. Sure enough it turned out to be the woodruff hey on the crank timing gear. So .53 cents later it was running. I would of liked to see the old owners face when I called him with it running in the background. :P
