This is not an instant solution but go to this ebay auction. 2425273659 email the guy and see if he has one for your application.

It's where I bought my CD repair manual for my "biggie" sized Bronco. I like the paper manuals well enough and have one for my 53, but this CD manual is unreal for the newer stuff. Best money I ever spent. About 3000 pages of model year specifics. Alot of help chasing the less than obvious things. Such as the 1994 Bronco feature where your transmission won't shift correctly if you blow a tail light bulb. That is just one of the many handy features the electrical engineers built into mine. I might need to rebuild the drivetrain whenever I launch my boat and get the bulbs wet, but at least I won't get a warning ticket from the police.

Did you try the transmissions/differential forum? There are some smart guys over there.

Dale, are you talking about manual locking hubs? I've got an '86 150 that I've had apart several times.

How far did you get before getting stuck?
