Sorry the links didn't quite work out for you, I just pulled them from another thread.

Also.... we have the option to conduct a search at the top of the page. This has proved to be quite helpful in my never ending quest for more information.

Hopefully the pic above will help, thanks ohiodan!

OhioDan · 03-30-2009, 07:46 PM

Rockabillyrat, try the link again. I was able to get to the pics. Great info.

rockabillyrat · 03-30-2009, 08:08 PM

but thanks ohiodan that will get me started on my sfbd full frame build. i love this place

OhioDan · 03-31-2009, 04:17 PM

I was able to access the link. Here are the pics from that link. Hope this helps?

from what books are these diagrams from?

OhioDan · 12-06-2015, 02:06 PM

Looks like they're from the service manual?

rockabillyrat · 03-31-2009, 10:34 PM

i got that link i was trying the high resolution link below that.

dfwright · 11-23-2009, 10:50 AM

I would love to see these in high res too, but I can't get anything through that site. If I can get copies of these, I'll post them where they can be downloaded by others.

biglou55 · 11-23-2009, 07:06 PM

I would like to be able to download them also.

scottwcook · 08-08-2010, 05:05 PM

Any luck with the high resolution images for a 1972 short step frame?

I would really appreciate copies if anyone has them.

Thanks All.

The link posted above, in post 17 still has the drawings, and they appear to be pretty good quality

dfwright · 01-18-2012, 06:42 PM

Well, I believe the ones referenced originally came from the "67-72 Factory Assembly Manual". Do they have one of those available for the later years?
