FWIW keep an eye on the parts board for stock replacement mirror arms, but be aware that there was an earlier version that look very similar, but have a slightly different hole pattern.
There is also reproduction arms available, i ran across this place tonight for the first time, they only show LH black and stainless so i'm sure the RH is available somewhere.

thanks as always for the attention/help.
The trip over the pass was smooth. Only two issues were finding out that my trailer brake control wire was messed up on my rig as I was hitching up to the trailer as I was getting ready for the empty run and then the last mile of hauling the GMC to the mechanic had me amid some crazies on Aurora/99 in N.Seattle.
And thanks on the mirrors. I was just looking at Wes' site (classiheartbeat) and saw that he has several styles to choose from. But he has no photos to give me a sense of what mounting pattern they use. I would really like to stay to existing holes--which the truck has many of. Wes has what he lists as 5" x 7" tripod mount that I think is what my target is. But I would like to know all my options before I spend any $$.
I am also shopping for a new antenna (mast is broken off) and a cigarette lighter (never had one). If you have any input there.
I did find a salvage spare tire bracket (underbed mounting style) but couldn't salvage the bolts. So I start legwork on them tomorrow while I go to fetch the new radiator.
