How are the Dealer TSB Manuals Organized? Is it by the publish date of the TSBs, or by the model year? So, will the 1997 TSB manual have all the TSBs published in 1997, or will it have all the TSBs that apply to 1997 model year vehicles (at the time of printing, of course)?

I'm considering buying the 1997 Technical Service Bulletins Manual and the Technical Service Revisions Manual to go with my otherwise complete set of manuals for my 1997 B3500 class B camper van. I am not always able to find the van-specific TSBs online.

I'm probably also going to buy a service manual on CD (e.g., Bishko), but I haven't yet found one that claims the TSBs are included. I appreciate any recommendations on digital media manuals, also.

 

I would give the dealers a call and ask them this specifically the service department. They were able to help me with some specs from my old van. Give a few dealers a try as some people you talk to will do more for you than the others.

 

Thanks.

 

You can get the TSBs here: http://www.bbbind.com/free-tsb/

It doesn't hurt to check the years on either side your your model year. Some never get fixed during manufacture and they don't necessarily repost them for each year.

 

Excellent resource. Thank you.
