Want to buy a shop manual for my F250 7.3 so I can do most of my repairs. I don't hear them talked about on this forum much. Who uses one and where can I get one.

 

chiltons and there is 1 more that i have but they are pretty much the same... the name is completely slipped my mind...hate when that happens

 

Chech with Riffraff Performance. I think he has some copies on dvd, if you want the digital version.

 

I want the paper version so I can take out to the garage for reference when I'm bustin knuckles.

 

I use a Haynes manual, and have for a few of my vehicles. I think I have gotten all of mine at Advance Auto for around $25 - $35.

 

Then you want the Ford manuals. You'll want at least the workshop manual and the PC/ED manual (powertrain), and maybe the electrical manual. You can sometimes find them on ebay. Helm inc. sells them new, but they are expensive

If you can't find a good deal on the paper manuals, I wouldn't waste the time with Chilton or Haynes. We do have a sponsor here that can get you all the info for a very reasonable price, but it will be online. You could always use the printer I guess.
