road wind pushes Mirrors in, help

[CharlieD]

This is on a 99 Jayco class C 28' eagle, E450 chassis. as We drive, the air pressure pushes the mirrors in to the point their of no use. Is there a fix for this.http://i1114.photobucket.com/albums/...101_093358.jpg

Is it the arm that folds in or just the head of the mirror that turns in with wind pressure?

Slow down?

arm folds in. 65 and up it happens, No, I don't want to be that person everyone has to go around.

Had the same mirrors and the same problem on a 1997 MH. The manufacturer admitted that they had a problem and replaced the mirrors with a different design. You could look at drilling a hole through the mount and mirror arm and trying to pin it.

Good luck.

If they haven allen screew threads, did you try tightening them? Worked for me on my 2015.

I have them so tight I was afraid they would break. I didn't think it made the arm joint any stiffer. There is a black plastic U piece the arm is held by, I think they may have shrunk over time and weather. They appear to be glued on. I have wedged a black zip tie between the arm and the black plastic u and it held for a few months, looking for a better fix.
