I am going to create a revision of the service manual that has been available from Power Wagon Advertiser for quite a few years. The last printing was the 3rd printing and occurred in May of 2001. It is a manual covering brakes, front drive axle, transfer case, rear axle, and differential.
The contents of this publication deal with the 1-ton Power Wagon manufactured under model designations WDX-WM300. Partial coverage of other applications will occur. Examples would be: Brake coverage applicable to M-series Dodge, WWII 3/4 and 1-1/2 ton. Front axle coverage applicable to M-series Dodges, and partially applicable to WWII 1-1/2 ton and late series 3/4 ton. Rear axle and differential coverage the same as front drive axle applications.
The current manual uses scans of the art from the factory manuals. I want to do the revised version of the manual using photographs, with more views and better views than originally included in the factory manuals.
I need your help. I can't take all the photos because I don't have work in process here in all the relevant topic areas. I am seeking photos from enthusiastic Dodgers out there.
I need high resolution, digital images, created with your camera set to produce the highest quality images it can produce. Give thought to lighting and clutter. Experiment with it, digital images cost nothing to produce. Practice taking photos of the important steps in service procedures. As I get some that are good, I will post a few as examples to show the sort of thing I am seeking.
The categories I need photos for are as listed above: brakes, front drive axle, transfer case, rear axle, and differential. Imagine this as if you are doing the work. What do you need to see, what do you need to know? What image would communicate that knowledge?
If I use your images in the manual you will be given recognition, bringing you world fame. No fortune is likely, but the fame will be international.
I also wonder what would be a next topic or two that you feel should be included as this manual is expanded. Fuel systems? Electrical systems? What is your critical need?
