Can you even purchase an actual service manual(you know book form that you can use with greasy hands and such) these days? I looked around and all I see are the CD manuals or downloadable stuff.

I imagine the stealership could probably hook me up but I dont even want to know what they would be asking for a BOOK about my truck!

 

theres always the good old Chilton or Haynes manuels

 

You could do like I did and download it (for free of course) and then take it to work, print it out and put it in a binder.

 

those are garbage. i suppose they're ok for figuring out where the oil drain plug is, but they suck especially when it comes to wiring schematics and other more complex things.

i'd check around online (i.e. amazon, etc.). if you're able to get it through the dealer, you're gonna pay way too much for it

 

OK after the call I just made thats definatly going to be the route to go. I caled my dealership and they say you have to get it through Chrystler Publications 1-800-890-4038. And by the way I asked how much one of these precious piles of paper would run me and he informed me of a sweet deal of only $150 and of course the cost of shipping on top of that.LOL

So where do I find the free online download?

 

Do an internet search for the year you are looking for. There is a guy who has one for every year posted on some tractor site or something like that. It is a big download but very worth it.

 

i downloaded mine off this site for free, some guy had a post a few weeks back about it. I my dad bought one for me for my 2nd gen ram, it was 97 bucks and worth every penny just to have a hard copy in the garage back then.

 

i got one i can send you, but again its a HUGE file (3,000 pages). any idea how to send that big of a file?

 

Nope not that big. i was trying to send some videos a while back and could not get the large files to send. I am computer illiterate.


Holy crap 3000 pages thats going to be funny when I hit the print button on that at work. What is that like 3 reams of paper!

 

I went through so much paper and ink printing that thing and it took more than a day bc I just couldn't do it all at once, but it was totally worth it.
