You need the parts book too, so you can have X ray vision to see how the shell was put together. The parts book is a great place to check BEFORE a modification. FF |

David; great find. I love the parts manual I got on my 5Cs, I understand though there is a rebuild manual for all these too, or is someone blowing Diesel smoke? Dave |

Dave, I look forward to seeing the video sometime. I was surprised my air horns worked. I had been blasting them on empty stretches of highway to try to remove the hornet nests. They only squeeked till that moment. Of course, maybe they were frozen like the rest of the bus when we rolled out of the mountains. |
