RE: Mirror replacement

Dale, these old motorhomes are not built like regular houses and I worry about any stress on the body such as those rear spare tires. On a previous Chieftain, I just had the awning removed thinking of the weight drag on my long trips out in the windy west. My two trips out west and back were so perfect that I know it is the passion of our enjoyment of them that makes all the work worthwhile. Doug

RE: Mirror replacement

On closer look, it was just the swing arm with the mirror that broke off clean leaving the support on the rv and the stud remaining. I guess it was just a clean break at the weld. Also I did find all the part stuff underneath. Future project. Do you remember, Scottiemom what the labor was on that? Mine may be different with a break off and me cutting the wire. Doug

Mirror replacement

This morning my heavy velvac right mirror broke off where the unit cements to a little 3' stub leaving a 4" pipe protruding down. Sorry still no good with pictures.As heavy as that unit is I can envision great difficulty trying to cement it or a new one back on. Are there much lighter units available ( this is a 04 minnie class C. Perhaps that would not be cement but a weld. I had to cut the wire so I could prevent it just dangling. Wondering what sort of money I will be getting into? Doug in Durham
