Default Tow Mirror pics - 5100 at 1.5 and stock rear with 33's

Hey all,

I'm looking at possibly purchasing power folding tow mirrors (super duty type from 1A Auto). I have a 2013 crew cab with 5100s up front set at the second from highest setting (1.5"). I have 275 70r 18 bfg ko2s.

I know my request is pretty damn specific. Those of you who have the same amount of lift with the tow mirrors, could you post pics of your truck? I love the tow mirror look, but don't like the look on a stock truck. I'm wondering how they'll look on my leveled truck with slightly bigger tires.

Thanks in advance!!

That is exactly what I have except I don't have bigger tires. I don't have any pics right now. Hopefully I can remember to get you some this evening when i get home.

5100's on the 1.5" setting as well. 5100's on the rear too.

Cool! Thanks! I just put 5100s on the rear of mine as well. Feels much better. Looking forward to the pics!

Haven't forgotten about you, just haven't had the time. I get home and its dark, I leave for work and its dark. I can get you some dark pictures but I bet that won't be much help. I haven't been driving my truck as they gave me a rental for my mirror being broken from my pheasant hit a month or so ago.

I don't have bilsteins but I have a 2.5 inch levelling kit with 33x11.5 and I have tow mirrors. I know it's not a 1.5 level but you can get an idea. Only pic i have of it with the level done.

No worries. I know what you mean! I appreciate it. Whenever you get the time.

I have a 2.5 inch level, but I have the 275/70/18 BFG all terrains,so pretty close to your setup.

Thanks guys! Do you find that not having the power fold feature is a pain? I park mine in the garage, so I feel like I should endure the pain of more money and a pita install to upgrade to the power fold ones. Thoughts?
