Looking at the photos, I see it has the mirrors mounted on the fenders. The M151A2 engine was a little rough at idle speed, and the mirrors in that location tend to vibrate so bad you can't see anything out of them, plus the fenders would eventually crack around the mirror mounts. I would suggest putting a 3rd arm on them. The mirror relocation was an official mod....the 3rd arm was just common sense. Ask any farmer or construction worker......3 points of contact for stability.

Even better is just to move them back to where they belong.
