Default Maintenance Manuals

Was looking around for the detailed maintenance manuals on the Ranger but was having trouble finding them. (Like the Chilton or Haynes books). I saw a lot of the F-series manuals, but not for Ranger. Anyone know where these can be found...

Jon,

I walked into Barnes & Noble (Well the Wife) she came home with one, my brother has it now . The Chilton's manual. You can also alot of times get them off of either Amazon or eBay pretty cheap. Mine from B&N was $11.95
a few years ago.

www.helminc.com has all the Hayes and Chilton manuals as well as the Ford shop manuals... 45 bucks gets you the Ford shop manuals w/ A LOT more detail then either Hayes or even Chilton.

I plan on keeping the 97 Ranger and the 92 F150 for a long time, which makes the shop manuals well worth the money. heck doing the right side axle shaft on the 97. axle code 91 is 3:27 non-limited slip Dana 35. also step by step plus layout with factory part numbers.

I also have both Hayes and Chilton manuals for both these trucks I got from helminc.
