Angry Dedicate service manuals, Do they exist ?

I was looking at my haynes manual, its so freaking vague it's unreal. I dont like how it's got v6's v8's v10's all in one freaking book. not to mention it also includes desiel engines as well,iv looked for them but it seems chelton's is just as bad i just wanna know if they have books stickly for 2nd gen 318's/360's with in my year range, this book has EVERY 2nd gen and it's annoying.

And NO i do not have the orginal service manual for the truck, i dont use them even if i do have them because they dont really tell you crap.

The x-mas thread has the FSM and it is pretty helpful. I'll see if I can dig it up.

Do you mean the owners manual? I have the actual 1994 Dodge Ram service manual published by chrysler and it is very informative. They pop up occassionally on ebay for around $100.

They are but im very very VERY VERY VERY VERY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

picky about my manual's and the one i want i cant buy because you can only get them if you work for dodge, it's a inhouse service manual that has ALL of the information.

one of my connections at a local dealership the guy said they call it the dodge bible, it as thick as a phone book and tells you EVERYTHING! about our trucks.

but they pay like 700 bucks for them and i dont want to spend that much money on one an even if i did have the money theres no guarentee i could get one because they only issue a few of them to the dealership because they'er a "company service manual" eyes only or some crap like that.

The link that I gave you IS the Factory Service Manual published by Diamler Chrysler. It's over 500 pages of info.
