Mirror shake
My arms going out to my mirrors have begun to wobble some cant seem to find any articles about fixing them correctly. Any replaceable bushings to replace to fix them? Same mirror setup as a ProStar

RE: Mirror shake
On my Prostar the top arm was loose/worn where it slides into the mirror assembly. I slide it out and jammed a piece of a zip tie in while I put the arm back in place, kind of shimmied it. It was solid for a year or so after that, I ended up epoxying them together down the road.

RE: Mirror shake
a simple hose clamp at the top slip joint works just fine too. Mine have had a hose clamp on them for years.

RE: Mirror shake
I got tired of janky looking zip ties, so I drilled a small hole through the top of the plastic pieces, and installed a small screw. Invisible repair, and now I can actually see behind me lol!

Gorilla tape does everything. Even patches holes in my tarps.
