My wife ordered two technical data books for me for Christmas, and got
an email saying that they were back ordered!
The Technical Data Manuals contain specifications and data available no
where else. There is tightening torque data for almost every nut and
bolt on all the Mercedes models built over the 3-4 year range that's
covered. There are wear specifications and measurement values. There are
many part numbers for many parts. There is absolutely NO information
about how to do any repair job. It's a book for the mechanic that knows
how to do all the jobs but needs the tolerance and measurements to do
the job properly. I use my 1985 and 1988 versions all the time.
