Parts Book Question

I was looking in my '73 - '79 parts catalog (on CD) for the 1978 Dana 60 front axle. For the illustration it tells me to go to section 30, page 17. The only problem is, section 30 only goes to page 14.

Am I doing something wrong?

Welcome to my world!
All of the CD versions stop at pg 14.
I heard about a year ago that they were supposed to be bringing out an updated version based on the final edition of the catalog but so far, nothing.

Go to the source...

The Dana-Spicer link in the tech thread sticky will lead you to Dana's spec book which contains exploded diagrams and PNs. Have at it.

I noticed that glaring omission as well on my CD version of the MPC.

I thought maybe i got a second rate 'bootleg' version of the original.

At least now i know otherwise.

A couple of months ago I ordered a passenger car parts catalog from Hipoparts, they accidentally sent me a copy of the truck parts. I was hoping that maybe it was updated but nope, same catalog as I already have, still missing the illustrations and still based on an early edition of the original catalog .

Hipoparts is were i bought mine as well, i realize it was the 1980 version but i expected it to be 100% complete.

It's still a very resourceful tool, just frustrating on those few occasions when you want to see an illustration beyond page 14.
