factory tech manual

[el dub]

I'd like to know what service manuals you guys use for your 68 chargers. Let me know if your satisfied with them. I need one. Thanks.

The best one by far is the factory service manual.  You can get reprints at most any restoration supply place and you can get cd-rom's of it all over as well as at any Dodge dealer.

Is the factory service man. charger specific or is it dodge b bodies in gerneral.

[Ghoste]

Dodge cars in general.

Dodge cars in general.

Sort of, The one that covers the charger also covers the coronet and dart models.

Yes, there is a separate one for C-bodies and another for trucks but the one you want is not Charger only as UFO mentioned.

  You want the Factory Service Manual for B body, the Mopar Performance book for Big or Small block and I also recommend there Chassis book. Understanding what the factory did, how they did it and why, prior to modifying anything can save you tons of headaches. (Money too!)

I really like these folks. The service manual on a cd has been a great advantage, and quite the bargain at $30.

Ok thanks guys, I've been going to library and copying what I need when I need it but I think I'll spring for a manual. After I figure out where to get some door hinges I'll be getting my car painted and I think I'm going to need one handy to finish things  up.

I always buy from these guys:

There's a "Parts Book" as well that is pretty handy - although HUGE and kinda pricey.

He's looking for the service manual, not parts catalog. Still a fine resource at mymopar.

I know, that was in response to troy's mention of the parts book.Should have added his quote to keep things clear.

I should have realized too what you meant. I lost track.

Side note for the forum: be aware that the parts download is huge, it finishes with well over 1600 pages in pdf. (that's for the 68 catalog). Got to be patient, and with some computers and/or internet providers the download may not ever finish, or will freeze.
