FJ40 Upgraded Side Mirror Mod (2 Viewers)

[Storm Ranch]

Used parts from Euro Style mirrors to retrofit golf cart mirrors. Pretty simple and looks clean. Part number in pics.

I bought a set of plastic golf cart mirror off Amoron for like $10. I just glued and metal roof screwed them in place on the door. Work's great compared to a lone motorcycle mirror duck tapped to the OEM stem on the driver door. They even fold flat for going threw the brush to get an elk.

Only used a FJ40 once to recover an elk off of pine covered hill. No way could a truck have worked it's way threw the Ponderosa Pines. Would never do it again. Even with plastic down I had to pull the seats and fuel tank out of my 68 to wash it out. Wasn't a big bull either. Not sure even quartered I could have gotten this boy.

No I didn't shoot this one. He was just one of the many bulls that spend summer and fall in our subdivision.

Cow hunter here. I had to pack my first one (big spike) miles after that I only shoot them on a trail I can drive to, much easier on an old man.

Finding one is only the small task. It's the getting out that nobody thinks of until you wish you just brought your frying pan with you.
