Any such thing as a good Service Manual?

I like to look at them, but haven't really used them.

That makes me wonder, am I the only one that reads old service manuals just for the heck of it?
its how i found my skid plate and grease point and external oil cooler thread-photos!

I found mine in a book store for $15.
It is one year early for my truck, but close enough.

For years the publisher of the service manuals, unit repair, wiring, and owner manuals was Helms. Try a search, been a while but that's what I did prior to the internet. By the way, nothing better than factory manuals. Haynes, chilton, motor, are meh

I've always been a big fan of factory parts manuals as well as factory workshop manuals, sometimes the exploded view diagrams are the best. "A picture is worth a thousand words"
