I know they can be adjusted quite a bit. I cranked them right on haha.
I could probably shim them and let the top out quite a bit before a gap appeared.

Some better quality pics.
Snowbird.
HOLY Mother of WIN! Looks so fucking good holy fuck fuck fuck. Don't change a single thing. Goddamn this is my new background on le iPhone. Shit this is just so good! Looks amazing dude! But srs the tows look good as is, I wouldn't level them the only thing I can suggest is tint that ail complete this sexy sexy truck
Cody, GR$$N$, knows how iirc I think he made the how to. I'd try to find the link but its a nightmare on my phone
http://customgm.com/exterior/4631-how-level-tow-mirrors.html no problemo just had to see who had the how to :shake:
Im sure its something stupid hi like 70%. 15% looks good on a single cab though and still be able to see well
LOL thanks for the link, I'll look into it and see if I like the leveled look.
I could have done this while installing them. But...I can pop the covers off and add those washers to shim them out pretty easily.
I do have a few more aesthetic changes coming - (aside from cleaning up frame rust etc)
-Undercarriage / Suspension upgrades
-01/02 HD hood mod
-Candied tailights
-Colormatch gate handle
-Colormatch rear bumper cover?
-Need to research the short bed conversion.. not certain yet.
-Tinted windows.
-Maybe some colormatched flares or custom fenders.
I don't think I am going to drive these wheels around all winter. I've considered plasti-dipping them to protect them from the elements but I will probably end up swapping out to old rims and tires.

leveling the mirrors is easy, just pop off the little cover and use some washer between the top clamp and the mount.
Truck looks awesome though, huge turn around

Thanks bro. Yeah I'll add 3 washers tonight like the link suggests. I don't think I will need new screws, they are pretty long.
I feel like some mirrors have a lot more of an angle than other and yours don't look too bad. if I ever did tows i wouldn't want them completely flat maybe just try two washers so they still point up just a tad. I feel like completely flat on looks good if you are lifted to the sky
BTW plasti dipping those wheels for the winter is an awesome idea idk why it hasn't been done before
