If you're using SmartFTP, you could try switching to active mode:

Using SmartFTP, I copied the link from Marshall's post and pasted it
into the address bar in the upper left corner of the window, paying no
mind that it doesn't appear there as identical to the original link.

If there's a way to access the manuals with a web browser, I missed it
too. Probably best to download an ftp client like SmartFTP, CuteFTP,
or any one of no doubt dozens of others, and use it to access the
goodies. As I said previously, I had no problem whatsoever finding
them using SmartFTP. It

Goodo, Marshall. First time I've accessed it; got right in using the
default settings for SmartFTP. Looks like most of the goodies are
there. Just for the sake of redundancy somebody might want to upload
the more current price list from Spud's website.
Kudos, Tarek!

What links. I just replaced the upper control arms on my 84 300SD and all
there was was a bolt that screwed into the end of the sway bar with two
bushings surrounding it. If the bolt is broken you might be lucky. If the
end of the sway bar is cracked I don't see how it could be easily repair
Thanks, all, for your responses. Jim is correct--it is the link to
the suspension that is broken. That rusted away and snapped right
where it goes through the suspension, where a rubber bushing trapped
water and salt. From what my indy could see on his computer, those
ends spline into the actua
About that same time somebody mentioned a 3 piece bar, splines end and
