ABSTRACT:
An adjustable rear view mirror is particularly adapted for use with truck trailers and is moveable both outwardly and angularly with respect to the truck cab to thus maintain a clear view towards the rear of the trailer. The mirror assembly utilizes a double cable control with one such cable moving the entire mirror housing outwardly during a turning of the trailer, and the other cable control then rotating the mirror into a desired viewing angle. Both cable controls utilize screw operators, and they may be manually or motor controlled.
