Today I got my third option on outside mirrors.

First option is on the car now. Very elegant simple mirrors with clamps to the hinge and a simple bar up to the round 3" diameter mirror...no convex lense on the right. They don't work very well for me. They swivel too easily and don't provide much information.

I also bought a second set of rectangular which clamped on the door, but when they came in they didn't work for me as the clamps interfered with closing the door and if I put it where you could clamp it on it gave a lovely view of the ground. i returned them and got a refund.

Today I receieved my third pair. They are offered for Jeep cjs.

These are simple black plastic (blick) but they look like they'll work well and are bigger than most of the car type mirrors and the right one has a convex lense. Unfortunately I'll have to drill holes in my new paint. I think I'll paint them body color if the plastic will take the paint.

The power steering pump groans when I turn the wheels and does not seem to provide enough assist to the ford rack. Also the steering does not return itself at all. Feels like the ball joints are glued instead of lubed. Any chance we reversed the hoses? What about the mercedes power steering pumps...all the same or do some put out more volume for the heavier cars?
