Re: Manuals?

I've been using the internet for over 15 years and I've found that I can find just about anything about any subject in there. Problem is that some info is free and some you have to purchase.

If there is a particular thing you are interested in, you can usually find something about it, but if it's general knowledge about your truck, you'll probably have to buy a book or repair manual.

This site has tons of information in it and theres literally hundreds if not thousands of members that have experienced just about any symptom you may have and usually answer just about any question you have - free.

Re: Manuals?

what cracks me up is people spending hundreds of dollars a year on magazines that contain little to no usable info but wont spend $25 for a service manual jampacked with all the info they need

Re: Manuals?

Have you tried these guys. http://www.faxonautoliterature.com/home_one.cfm
I bought an original owners manual from them in new condition for my 72 GMC. I believe it was around $25.

Re: Manuals?

Might be a silly question, but are the GMC manuals different? I thought they contained both truck styles, but admit i have not looked at one in awhile.

I have the Chevrolet one's here http://www.2heeldrive.com/Chevrolet/Parts%20Manuals/
