Always refer to the PARTS MANUAL that corresponds to the specific model and
serial number indicated on the serial tag plate of your vehicle. This is essential to
locating and ordering the correct components that were used during that particular
manufacturing period.
It is also very helpful using the illustrations to clearly see and
define the component being referred to.
If components are no longer listed in your
Spare Parts Price List (Distributors and Dealers Only) generally the superceded
section will indicate which part(s) will update or replace it. All parts manuals are
available in PDF format on CD.
