MY 2000 TJ has developed "floppy mirror" syndrome. The passenger side outsid
emirror turns down when I drive. I.e., the force of the wind pushes the
mirror. It moves too easily and therefore gets "readjusted" every time I
drive. Does anyone know how to tighten up the mirror's adjustments?

thanks for your help!

 

There is a bug nut on the bottom part where it attaches to the mount. Make sure that
is tight. I dont recall what size socket it takes, sorry.
