I'm trying to figure out the best way to remove the mirror shaft from the two hole aluminum mounting bracket. I want to replace the upper mounting bolt.

I don't want to damage the folding mechanism and mine seems really stuck into the mounting bracket!

Thanks for the great ideas I've gotten from this forum!

The shaft is tapered, use a brass drift and a 2lb hammer to useat the pivot after removing the nut.

Thanks Jim

I was being over cautious, don't want to buy a new fitting.
