New 2019 3500 HO Lamramie SRW purchase.

Here is the draw bar I use. Nice and heavy duty, no need for chrome and flashy aluminum. This guy is heavy solid cast steel.

Change of subject, how do you fold these mirrors out for towing? I sure hope they do.

 

[dieselshadow]

You manually flip them up.

 

[dieselshadow]

Unless they offered power flip.... Can’t remember if they offered that on the 19s. I know the new ‘20 GM trucks and Ford has that as an option.

 

[RVTRKN]

I don’t want to break them by forcing them unless I’m certain they do.

 

[RVTRKN]

I was trying the drivers side, as it turned out it was stiff. So I tried the passenger side and it was easier so then I then folded out the drivers side

 

[TFucili]

Does your window sticker indicate tow mirrors? They should just flip up into "Bullwinkle mode".

Oops, too slow on the draw. Glad you got them going.

 

[dieselshadow]

Yeah! With no trailer you’re officially in “douchebag mode.” LOL

Hey, just a minute

In the OP’s defense, he doesn’t have huge tires, a stack through the bed, and isn’t “rolling coal” with his mirrors flipped out and no trailer. The requirements may also list a few empty beer cans in the bed as well. Not sure.

i drive with the mirrors out. because i can see better. there are a few clowns in older ram/dodges around here with the stack, balloons for tires etc. - they roll coal to the point where you have to drive through a 1/4 mile of soot cloud on some occasions. its just stupid. however, if they choke a few lance armstrong cyclists then i dont mind their stupidity as much....cheers comrades!

My statement was made tongue-in-cheek for those who missed my warped sense of humor. No offense to anyone.

To the OP, I think your truck is sharp and I’d be proud to own it myself. Truck on sir!

 

[TFucili]

Bullwinkle is never offended!

Don't forget the flat bill lid and white sunglasses

For me when not towing, I prefer the closed position, I have them set up pretty well for my use. It's a pain for me with the non-memory mirrors to get them back adjusted for some reason, user error most likely.

I don't like the field of view, truck empty, with them up.

 

[RVTRKN]

When I got my 07 with the B&W bed, my SIL made wise cracks about me having them out. UNTIL he drove it, I got it back with the mirrors out. You couldn’t see around the wide bed, but with the SRW, I didn’t even think of it until curiosity got me.

I wonder if I can fit Bullwinkle on a specialized lic. Plate. Hummm

On the way home from Colorado when the truck was new, in Boise, Id I changed lines on a little car in the passengers side blind spot, so at the next truck stop I found these little mirrors and added them to the mirror arms.

I only run 'antlers up' when towing, and yes they work much better when up.

I have a hard time driving the newer trucks because of the funky spot mirror. It is not a true convex so the field of view is small. My small convex on my 2nd gen have a bigger view.

Has anyone found an adapter with better fit? Kind of a thin line between a good fix and having the adapter getting stuck in the receiver. The other area is the 2" insert fit being loose in the adapter. I find that the adapter that came with the truck is loose in both areas. SnoKing

Looks like B&W makes one, give em a call.

 

[Cummins12V98]

I don't have a real truck.
