Default Mirror Bracket Dimensions

Eric,
Attached is my best quick effort in a drawing of the measurements of the mirror bracket. A bit amateurish but hope it gives you the information you seek.

The mounting plate (2 3/4" by 1 1/2") is 1/4" plate. The bottom hole in it is 1/2" on center from the bottom with the second hole 1 1/4" on center from the bottom hole.

The knuckle was the original piece that was used to attach the mirror to the bracket; we welded a 1/8" thick tab to the outside edge of the rod 1/4" from the end and drilled the appropriate size hole for the morrors we purchased from NAPA. The mirror shown is the backside of the original.

By the way the original rod was 5/8" in diameter starting at the mounting plate and tapering to 1/2" at the end; we used a 1/2", non-tapering rod.

Regards,
Jim
