Default Anyone have Official Ford Service/spares manuals?

Hi all,

I'm a converted Ford man who owns a AU SIII Forte & a BA SII ute.

Can anyone hook me up with genuine Ford Service / Spare parts catalogues for these models?

I am after something a little more detailed than the Gregory's manuals, which are good if you only want to change the filter and plugs!

I think there was an official Ford BA service manual CD-ROM listed on EBay recently, so if no-one here has them you could try that.

Genuine hardcopy BA Workshop Manual is several thousand pages, cost over $1000 - if you can buy one. They are supposedly only available to authorised Ford repairers, not the general public. There was a guy on another forum that bought a BA Workshop Manual on CD-ROM from eBay and then changed his mind and decided to sell it again (not to try and profit, he fixed the problem he had so didn't need manual anymore), so listed it on eBay and supposedly Ford contacted eBay and ask them to remove the ad because the guy wasn't supposed to have the CD.

Very hard to find AU series 2 hardcover manuals, they are 3 binders, very good info.
I was lucky enough to get mine off ebay a few years ago, for $300.
i seem to remember a while back that pitstop had them on special for $300, but couldnt seem to find them on the site.
They have the AU series 1 for $295, might've been that one.
Maybe PM RussellW, he might be able to post up a few scans off the manual, just ask him what you need, and dont forget to ask nicely and thank him!!
