Navigating the search feature using cell

OK, I openly admit that I am not tech savvy when it comes to the latest phones. Just ask anyone who receives a text from me. I blame that on the small print.
My computer finally crashed, and unlike a certain vintage truck I refuse to throw more money at it. That makes me solely dependant on my cell phone to navigate the web, and this portal specifically.
How does one search our 48-56 truck forum and filter for only our forum. So far I use the search icon but all other forums come up as well, then I scroll through the posts that apply to our 48-56 section.
Theres got to be a better way.
Also where does one find the build thread that was compiled by members that covers some of the basics like steering swaps, wheel size, brake conversions....well you get it.
Thanks in advance.

It’s not all that bad…

Hit search, scroll down to advanced. That’ll bring up a bunch of fields. The last one says “Search in Forums” and by default “search all open forums” is selected. Tap on that, unselect the “search all open forums” box, check the one you want and you’re good to go.

I'd be completely lost. I'm fairly competent with technology, I just can't see that little screen....LOL
