I don't think I've seen anyone take mirrors from a Ford and put them on a Dodge.

There are 3rd Gen tow mirrors that look good on the 2nd gens, but the 4th Gen Rams, no swapperoo. Ford, I doubt as well.

bummer I like the looks of those 2010 ford tow mirrors plus they are different and it would look alot different then the tow mirrors on the dodge people always keep flipped up lol

where there is a will, there is away. i bet that yes, you could get them on, and mounted. after alot of trimming, and cutting, and drilling, and than i doubt they would look good once on the truck.

get the towing mirrors they make for our trucks, they look great, work amazing. they actually come out further than most other towing mirrors which really let you look behind your trailer.

true enough. maybe I will just be one of the dodge owners that doesnt keep my mirrors flipped up all the time lol. btw this is off topic but what lift do you have on your truck and what size tires loki?

With enough effort anything is possible. Physically mounting them would likely be the 'easy' part. I'd guess you'd have to make a fiberglass cap to go between the Ford mirror and the Dodge door. I think it could be done, and could look awesome.

I personally think the Ford tow mirrors are a far superior design to the flip up Dodge units.
They are also far more stable in cross winds.

see thats what I was thinking and I like the rectangular sstyle Im wondering if I could get someone to make supports to extend them even farther to make the rear with a trailer as visible as with the flip up ram mirrors. but I would have to hire someone to make the support brackets and the supporting and longer sleeve to extend it more. but I think it would be worth it especially If they could be heated living in colorado and all. but I think it is worth it being a unique design thought and if anyone hs ever done it apparently they didnt feel the need to show it lol

4" suspension and 35's.

And yeah, you could definitely get them mounted. The trick is making them look good and not hodge podged on there. But anything is possible if you have the time tools and knoledge or the coin for soneone else who does.
