1958 Dodge Truck L Series Shop Manual

This OEM 1958 Dodge Truck L Series Shop Manual is a high-quality, authorized, licensed reproduction of the original shop manual published by Dodge Division. Dodge called their trucks of this era "Power Giants", and checking under the hoods, it would be hard to argue that they were wrong. Muscle wasn't the only admirable trait of these L series trucks. Their sweeping, stylish "Forward Looking" lines didn't hurt either.

When it comes time for you to service your classic Dodge, the first tool you'll want is KNOWLEDGE! This service manual is definitely chock-full of that. At almost 600 pages, you'll find all the details you need to get (and keep) your vintage rig on the road. Whether you have a 6 cylinder power plant, or the 8 cylinder mill, you'll appreciate the specifications and procedures outlined in this guide. It has the goods on the truck line-up from 1/2 ton to cab-over (C.O.E.) models, to forward control models, school bus models and the 4 x 4 and 6 x 4 versions, too.

Perhaps your afternoon schedule includes checking King pin inclination, caster, camber and toe-in and toe-out. Maybe you have a Sure-Grip differential to assemble. Let's say you need to adjust the hinges on that handy, alligator type, 90 degree hood. Does your double rocker arm assembly have you scratching your head? Need to correct your timing for fuel and altitude? Have no fear. This manual will walk you through all of those projects, and many, many more. From simple tune-up procedures to full-on rebuilds, this 1958 Dodge truck "L" series shop manual has the information you need. You'll love the abundance of illustrations, black and white photographs, tables, charts, diagrams, exploded-views and other visual tools included with the detailed written instructions.
