You made a simple project out of this just by watching your video. Thanks!!

[@nobodyhome2318]

Great video! Just did the coolant line reroute, ordered the SPE disaster prevention kit and CCV reroute with the internal baffle.

[@jasonhatfield4747]

Great video! I just watched the first 3-4 minutes and was able to go out to my truck and replace that turn signal light that everyone breaks because...well, I broke mine. We have a 2021 F-150 XL with the towing mirrors and all the parts/process for removing was the same. However, I did not need to remove it from the truck and I did not need to remove the motor. It all came apart pretty easily and luckily all went back together nicely too.

[@eddyflo2978]

If I may, which tow mirrors did you go with and are you happy with them.? Thanks

[@frankmarquis8095]

Thank you for the video appreciate it I've got to change that light you were talking about it got busted on my 550 super duty have the part in hand and wasn't sure how to get it apart thanks to you we can get her done! God bless!

Thanks for this Video! It was a huge in repairing my mirror. A toll gate had broken the back half of my mirror plastic and i was able to find a part and fix my mirror instead of ordering a new one from ford or using a aftermarket!!

This was perfect. My mirror was hit, the plastic had a hole in it. Ordered a new one on eBay, they sent me very basic one, took apart both mirrors and was able to pick out only the part that I needed. Kept all my electrical wiring and the sensor. Thank you for the detailed video.

[@joshuadahlen7623]

We just had our R side Signal Light busted and bought a aftermarket replacement part. Thanks for this video! We will update if the part fits my 2019 F350 Limited.

[@slapshot121212]

Great video. I smacked a branch and broke the turn signal light in the passenger mirror. One thing I will add, on a ‘22, I did not have to remove the mirror motor to get the parts separated to swap the light.

[@DS-TRUCKS]

Wish we could get those parts individually!

[@DeWaltRadialguy]

Your videos are so well done! You are very good! How do you fix the mirrors if they dont extend outwards for towing? What causes that? They want to go out a bit, but get stuck during the extension.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Thank pal, mirror assy time

[@davetritt7139]

Great video! I definitely would've tried to do this while it was still on the truck. After watching the video and listening to your advice, I decided against it. Glad I came across your video, it definitely made the whole thing easier.

[@sherryYYC]

I replaced the caps on my mirror on the truck and it was fine. Definitely fewer steps involved.

[@Zach-ze6ep]

Do you need to do all this to get to the power folding gear and motor as well? It looks like the plastic sleeves on the arms slide out that way but I haven't looked to deep yet.

[@fancy2121]

Any suggestions on fixing at pivot point?

[@rlegerwood]

When you separated the halves, are the telescoping and folding motors visible, or do you have to further disassemble?

[@15Jeep]

Frequent - Complete - Full - Extreme mirror adjustments can lead to "mirror wiggle". Example - adjusting the mirror all the way down frequently for parking in order to see the curb can and most likely will lead to "mirror wiggle". These mirrors are made primarily of plastic type (ABS) materials. Numerous adjustments and movements will eventually take its toll in wear and tear.

Real sorry to go off topic here, but wondering if you have done a video on the 2020 and 2021 rear-end recall. Thanks

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

No, not yet pal

[@oldguyone]

I was able to buy both side mirrors for under 500.00 CAD. The dealership had quoted me 2145.00 approx. to buy 1 drivers side mirror. My mirror has the motorized mirror, the extension, the folding option. and the defrost, option. It has the signal light, the clearance light, the puddle light and the extra light, and the chrome cap. The ones I replaced did not have the power extension or folding option. I was hoping to replace the motorized part in to the new mirror as waiting for a new mirror all the time was not good. For 6 months they never had the mirror in stock that had all my options on it, so i just decided to try to replace all the internal motor and hope I got it right.

[@charlesklippel92]

Oh wow I'm first look at that I wonder if I get a free Ford pen

[@chrisatkerson858]

I need to figure out why when I fold my mirrors out, they just keep going and don’t stop. Like the lock inside is broken or something. Any idea’s or videos that I couldn’t find? Any help is great!

[@John5ive]

Thanks for this video. I need to replace mine on the driver side cuz an owl flew into it!!! Do you know if there are any extensions so the mirrors can go our farther? All the way out, I cannot see down the sides of my 8.5ft wide RV trailer. I've seen extra wide mirrors on RVs that use the f550 chassis. Thanks

[@jwhoward182]

Awesome video! I could not special order the truck and don’t need the dumbo ear mirrors. My garage is only 9’ wide and we pull them manually to get the truck in without fear of breaking them. I would like to modify the mirrors to reduce their retracted width as much as possible. Do you think this is feasible?

Um no

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

No sir

[@knuttsackjones3094]

If it’s a crew cab there should be a prewired plug in the frame towards the back of the cab. It’s used for either the deployable running boards or the lights that go with them. You can tap into those and run puddle lights under your rocker panels. Colts Way has a good how to video on it

Can the the mirror cover against the door that surrounds the arms be taken apart? I took a rock on a gravel road and put a hole in the plastic I’d like to avoid replacing the whole mirror if possible? Great instructions in this video!

Naw think thats part of thee body of the mirror

[@user-pg6pk4ez9l]

Ok, I know this is an old video. I'm trying to figure out a way to lubricate my extension and folding gears without blindly spraying lube. Can you make a video about that?

Sounds like a good idea man

[@johnbarr827]

Do you have a video of disassembling the mirror arms? My are folding in the opposite direction (they were hit).

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

I sure dont

[@willb7975]

Meant to post this question on day of vid release. What is a recommended maintenance plan for folding mirrors? I did not find any details in the owners manual or via "G00gle". My '17 F350 "DD", i've noticed that my driver side mirror is just a tad slower inbound & outbound compared with the passenger side. I've tried spaying some dry graphite lube in friction areas to "help" but no changes. Looking to the man for suggestions, thanks brother.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

U kmw what ive never looked

[@Hamlocks]

Yesterday I caught my passenger side mirror on my shop door and folded it forwards and now it’s when I try to close or open it, it swings all the way forward like 180 degrees out. What do I need to replace on it?

My mirrors creak when power folding and unfolding. Is there something in there that can be lubricated so they don’t lock up on me? With the mirror apart, this seems the time to do it!

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Some white lithium grease wld suffice

[@mattl9449]

Have you ever lubricated the mirrors? I have a 2020 and they sound "unlubricated" or in need of, and they do not go in together. Also, periodically one will not open all the way up when I hit unlock. Recommendations?? Love your videos by the way, keep it up!!

Curious... Just purchased a 2020 F350 and the towing mirrors don't wanna move without finger assistance. can motors be jammed up? Is there a video showing mirror motor maintenance / replacement?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

The motors are not service separately from ford

[@markhaney7332]

Just took my mirror apart today to fix the folding issue. Turns out both detent pins are bent. Ordered two take off folding motor mechanisms to replace mine. I pretty much have everything apart at this point. I did un-bend the detent pins some (could not get them perfect) and tried the mirror and it works, so I know what the problem is and how to fix it. Ford refused to replace it under warranty - given the bent pins, not sure what caused the issue but something is amiss … Thanks for the great video - I recommend removing the puddle light before separating the housing - there is a slot for a screw driver so you can remove it easily and then unplug the wiring. That way it does not get in the way.

My passenger mirror on my 2008 doesn’t fold…..never has since I bought it. Haven’t found a “how to”video on it. Do you have any leads?

[@darrellsego1155]

I didn't understand your reply. Did you say that "No you can't show me how to disassemble the folding hinge section"? What do you mean by "can service it or get parts for that"? I have done a lot of searching of this common F350 problem and it is usually caused by a plastic gear in the motor drive system that folds the mirrors in and out. There is a company that came up with and sells replacement brass gears to fix this problem. My first issue is figuring out how to remove the plastic cover for the hinge and motor. That's what I am hoping to find out. I sent a message to the company that sells the replacement brass gears for instructions also. I have already removed all of the other plastic covers on the mirror. There are videos on that part that are easy to find. I'm hoping to find someone who knows how to do that. Thanks for the reply.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

I do not have a video for that, I am not gonna make it. Ford does not sell parts to service the mirror hence the reason why I haven't made a video.

[@knuttsackjones3094]

This is exactly the same way the newer GM truck mirrors come apart. They must be sourced out to the same company. The only difference is that one can actually see out of the Ford mirrors while their GM counterpart is a bit on the useless side

Quick question, the bottom mirror, the piece that it screws into, is it replaceable? I dropped my truck off at the dealer to have the lights replaced and the tech lost the screw, and screwed in a cheap short screw, it ruined the piece it screws into. Dealer doesn’t want to pay for a whole new mirror so they are trying to fix it a cheaper way.
