Any recommendations for a good repair/service manual

Hi
I have a 63 cj5 that is licenced for the road and is working well.
I have had it for 5 years now with no major problems.
Recently the clutch has been engaging at a higher pedal position than it used to ...kind of oocurred over the winter storage period.
I have read a few great threads on how to adjust the clutch cable so i will give that a try soon.

Which brings me to my next question.
Are there any good repair books or service manuals available for my 63?
and where would I get one?

thanks
Fred

 

THE factory service manual.

or ebay, or post in WTB classifieds section here.

 

Moses Ludel's jeep rebuilding guide AND the FSM

 

The PO of my jeep had a copy of the factory manual jammed in the glovebox. It's the best thing I've found.

 

Thanks guys
would the FSM be specific for the CJ5 and year ? ( ie 1963 Willys CJ5 FSM) or more generic that encompasses many years and models?

Are they still in production or are is it a hard to find item.

The link in the thread below states that Faxon Auto Literature
Located in Riverside, CA has them and one can buy for around $45 US dollars It goes on to say there are two manuals that cover Jeep that share a similar title anf that , make sure you tell them you want the service manual with the Dauntless V-6 listing. It is worth twice the price, it tells you everything you want to know and then some.

Has anybody brought on efrom them?

Thx
Fred

 

I bought my manual from Turner's. Here's the one you want: http://thejeep.com/shop/HOT+SELLERS....html?osCsid=b328051c747adc6ca463350e1f13f7a8

These reprints are available from a lot of sources. Before my time, but I expect the factory manual did not change every year. There were probably supplements to cover updates and new features.

 

Sent you a PM....I would go that route.
