I find it very hard to use.... Just think of it as looking through a book with almost 5000 pages
for 1 part number? not easy.but, it's worth the money to have it.

It's simple, all you need is a coupla hours of practice. If a cluck like 
can figure it out, anyone can.Find the basic part number in the text, adding the prefix and suffix gives the complete part number.
For example: 16892 is the basic part number for the safety catch. Take that number to TEXT, Section 166, page 12...there are the listings.
If you can count, you can use the parts catalog...the first chassis basic number is 1001, the last is 19999.
These numbers are in different sections...look in the left margin (Text or Illustrations) to see all of them.
Examples: Steering 3000 / Engine parts 6000 (352/360/390 section 60.7) / Grilles/radiator/cooling 8000 / Fuel related 9000 / Lamps 13000 / Fenders/hoods 16000.
A FAQ can be answered here: Text, section 12, page 1.
The BODY section can be confusing. You have my phone number, call me, I'll walk you thru it.
