  • Towing Mirrors for 1997 Ford F-250HD
  • We offer several slip-on towing mirror kits for your 1997 Ford F-250HD that you can see on the page I linked for you but none of these CIPA and Longview mirrors has the same design as yours old aftermarket mirrors. Note that these slip-on mirrors fit only specific versions of the OEM mirrors and this is noted in the Tech Tips. If you could find a brand name and/or part number on your mirrors it might be possible to find parts but honestly I would not hold much hope for that given the age...

  • Can the Gears Inside an Atwood Landing Gear Set Be Replaced
  • I do have an option for you but Atwood has since gone out of business and there are no repair kits for their landing gear legs. Therefore, the only option you have would be to replace the entire set. For this, the Stromberg Carlson Electric Landing Gear Set part # LG-3 is a very popular option. It comes with new brackets if yours do not match the required 17-1/2" outside to outside and 15-1/2" inside to inside for the above.

  • How Can I Replace The OEM 7-Way Plug On A 1997 Ford F-250 HD?
  • I do have a potential solution for you, but I do not have a 7 way harness that will plug in to the round plugs you described. I recommend using a pre-wired connector like part # 20023. You will have to do a bit of cutting and splicing, and this kit comes with everything needed to do so. This comes with a 7' wire lead, so you may have to cut it down to size. Wire colors are not universal, so using a wire probe like part # PTW2993 can make determining wire function much easier. I have included...
