Repair Manual
So I'm sure that this has been brought up before, but I'm looking for a repair manual (Haynes or Chilton). They seem to make a 1972-1979 ford trucks, but I'm having a hard time finding one for my 1972. I'm sure that over 75% of the information in both are the same, but I'm wondering if anyone has some better information for me.

Re: Repair Manual
I overhauled the engine and have done other work on my 71 4WD using "Clymer Super Shop Manual for trucks." Ford 4-Wheel Drive Full size F-Series Pickups & Bronco 1969-1987
Here's a couple of two wheel drive versions:

I have a set of Ford shop manuals. They can be pricy on E-bay but I waited and found a set for under $50.00 You may want to save a search on E-bay and see if one comes up that fits your budget.

Re: Repair Manual
For general maintenance and repair, brakes, tune-up, ect. This one will serve you well. If you are going to rebuild the motor, or tranny yourself you may want the more in depth shop manuals.

Re: Repair Manual
You could also try Mac's Antique Auto Parts.com. They have a lot of stuff over there. When I start on my '67 Merc I'm sure they will put me on the board of directors for ordering so many items.
