Is there a pdf shop manual available anywhere?

EDIT: Oops. I misread that you were looking for a PDF version of the owner's manual. Sorry.

He means the service manual. Info here: https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-electrical-lighting-sound-systems-13/jk-service-manual-faq-information-16646/

FYI, I was PM'd and informed the new VISTA compatible version of the service manual is now available if you call TechAuthority and ask for it.

Is there any difference between the above listed manual and Chiltons?

tgrt

I wasn't aware Chilton's had one. But, I'm not at all impressed with the one that is available -- at least the CD content.

JackMac4

The TechAuthority one is the jeep authorized manual, while chiltons is not. Probably a little bit of accuracy difference and better schematics in the official one.

tgrt

I wouldn't say the TechAuthority one is all that accurate either. Case in point, for the removal of the front bumper there is nothing mentioned about the plastic piece that covers the gap over the frame between the grill and bumper, nor is there any mention about deattaching the pins that hold the fog light wiring along the bumper. Granted that isn't too difficult to figure out, but those steps are glaring omissions and as far as I'm concerned cast doubt on the overall accuracy of the manual.

JackMac4

I'm not trying to defend them in any way, but I'm sure every service manual with have omissions as it is a lot of content to put together. Overall I'd take the factory manual over a chiltons any day. Haynes are sometimes alright, but they usually are lacking in detail as well.
