$1000 + $50 shipping.  Yikes!!!!  Makes the little bit of time it took to repair one of mine yesterday well worth it!  Especially since mirrors on Big Blue are likely to touch a limb or some such and get damaged.

And they are not even electric!

I think I will just keep restoring the originals as much as I can.

I'm in the middle of "restoring" one of mine.  I'll probably start a thread on it when done, but the main thing I'm doing is replacing the rivet at the bottom of the arm and lubing everything that is supposed to move.

Where can you get the plastic spacer bits that the mounting bolts go through?

[kramttocs]

Besides the eBay (not sure about NOS showing up) and jy answers, what about buying a cheap aftermarket kit just for those pieces?

[Gary Lewis]

I don't know about NOS either, but here are the PN's just in case:

[Gsmblue]

I got aftermarket mirrors, the gaskets were different.

Ebay is prob the way to go, ta!

[Gary Lewis]

I was just about to tell you that I have a pair of the upper 2-hole ones you can have, but none of the lower 2-hole.

[Gsmblue]

Oh thank you! Let be double check the mirrors I have, but that would be great, the aftermarket mirrors are not good

Is this the right model? Dennis Carpenter has it.

[Gary Lewis]

Jeff - I think that's for a Type 5 mirror, as you can see here: Documentation/Exterior/Exterior Mirrors.  I think Deren has Type 9 mirrors, as shown in the pic below, and they have plastic pieces as shown in the red circle.

[Gsmblue]

Gary, correct, type 9 mirrors. I will definitely take you up on the offer of the gaskets!

[Gary Lewis]

Deren - You are on, but you do realize I only have the top ones.  Right?

Send me your address via email and I'll get them out tomorrow.

[Gary Lewis]

Thanks, Ralph, but let me see if I understand:

E0TZ-17724-A / 1,487 available at Dennis Carpenter.  For "Upper 3 holes 6 x 9 mirror"

E0TZ-17724-B / 1 available at Dennis Carpenter.  For "Lower 3 holes 6 x 9 mirror"

E0TZ-17724-C / 2 Available at NOS Parts LTD. Waxahachie Tx. [phone]  For "Upper 2 holes 6 x 9 mirror —(black)"

E0TZ-17724-D / (Lower 2 Hole) 2 Available at NOS Parts LTD. Waxahachie Tx. [phone]  For????  I don't find that number in the MPC.

So none of the lower ones that Deren needs for his 2-hole mirrors are available.  Right?

I think we need someone to draw these up for 3D printing.

It's in the 1986 MPC. 1989 REV.  Lower 2 hole 6x9, But it is Black.

Not if he needs the Argent ones. That is correct.

[Gary Lewis]

Ok, so E0TZ-D is black.  That might work.

And was taken out of the MPC.  

As for printing, I've read that ASA plastic used in 3D printing is pretty UV stable.  Should be good for this application.

[81-F150-Explorer]

A lot of part numbers were removed because they were either superseded by another part number, or they were obsoleted by or before the final printing.

An example of this,

Distributor Cap:  300/6

1977-83: F-E-U100/350: D7DZ-12106-A: Motorcraft# DH-367-DP / BLUE / RB: E3DZ-12106-A
1983-86: F-E-U150/350: E5DZ-12106-A: Motorcraft# DH-367-B / GRAY

The Blue cap isn't in the final 1994 printing. Otherwise they are identical.

I've been wanting to get the 1990/1999 MPC book to see what other part number revisions that might fit our trucks etc...  Also the Medium Books that cover the F-600/900 might have some cab goodies etc ...
