Cheers wiz 13-01-2003, 10:53 PM there's a motoring book shop in Punchbowl,Sydney who apparently could help ,if they haven't got one they may be able to get one... we are talking about the HAYNES - OWNERS WORKSHOP MANUAL or something similar(have one for my GTV and these things are a must have) graemlins/rock.gif i think i need one too then .......nice avatar tongue.gif Sureshot 13-01-2003, 11:31 PM Yeah the Haynes one is the way to go I believe yes it is the Best Avatar! TW. 14-01-2003, 02:49 AM we sell them here fellas, $69 inc tax. there haynes and have a fair bit of info. other than that maybe someone has a CD copy to burn? merolius 14-01-2003, 10:15 AM the best place i've found for workshop manuals is drysdale books in brisbane albert st bris. ph 3229 5075 and since he specialises in usa books , scott would have what ever jeep manual you wanted . or he can order direct from anywhere in usa . i ordered a 15 year old rx7 book . rare as , thought i never get it , but alas i did :-).. sheesh sounds like add , maybe i should get a commission ..lol [ 14 January 2003, 09:17 PM: Message edited by: merolius ] Wooders 14-01-2003, 01:46 PM I disagree guys the Haynes manual IMHO is pretty worthless for a TJ. They started with a YJ and then just sort of updated it to cover the TJ, when infact there are MANY differences between the YJ & the TJ. If you are going to get anything the Factory Service manual is the ONLY way to go. This are expensive to buy (about $100usd) but are FAR FAR superior. I'm PM you both some information for you can see what I mean. Wooders 14-01-2003, 08:55 PM Someone contact him & see if he can source a Factory Service Manual then :D BlackCat 15-01-2003, 10:08 AM Wooders, didn't you have the manual on CD? Wooders 15-01-2003, 09:14 PM Yup. Worth it's weight in gold.....I do also own a copy of the Haynes Manual - which is why I expressed my earlier opinions on it.... I have installed copies of the FSM on my work Laptop, my home PC and yes even my garage PC..... (Yes sadly I've even resorted to using an elcheapo PC in my garage and I'm collecting all tech manuals I can on it (& the others). But I wouldn't suggest on an open forum that I could or would copy it becuase of the potential trouble...... However if anyone would like to talk to me about the manual please feel free to PM or email me or even ring me.... I find it really disappointing that the Yanks can buy the FSM from a dealer, but here you can't & Chrysler Aust will NOT entertain the thought (last disuccion I had with them anyways)....

Not quite as good as the $12 USD. I paid for the last couple I got each. TJPete 25-01-2003, 11:25 PM Originally posted by Wooders: Yup.

I have the paper manuals I bought in '97, they are pretty greased up now but were worth their weight in gold. You can source the CD from the States. Visit mopar.com PhilCJ10 26-01-2003, 12:27 AM while we on about work shop manuals if any one needs info on the CJ10/J10 I have the factory work shop manual (thick as a phone book) plus a coppy of a parts book as well. Also have others in my manual collection... FC170, J series, 74 Jeeps, early universal etc etc Wooders 04-02-2003, 06:04 AM Found these on ebay.... 1998 TJ - Paper (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2401381066&category=6032) Closes approx 7pm 5/2/03 2001 TJ FSM - Paper (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2402195727&category=6762) Haynes TJ Manual - Paper (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2401777581&category=34224).

I've got the 95XJ/YJ paper version which is really beefy and it does contain things for the RHD XJ. I was lucky when the dealer parts guy ordered it for me back in 1996. dxj 04-02-2003, 10:30 AM Hi, I have FSM for '98 XJ on CD plus paper '97 XJ and '98 diesel powertrain diagnostics. Best thing from ebay was '98 XJ parts fiche. Almost a pleasure to order parts now! :D If only Jeep didn't take their prices from the Mercedes book. Shame on CJA for dismal support of Jeep enthusiasts, no manuals! graemlins/twak.gif TJPete 06-02-2003, 06:19 PM Originally posted by Sureshot: Hello Everyone Can anyone recommend a workshop manual for 97 TJ and where to get it I have searched High and Low and can't find one.......
