I know this is probably a dirty word but I have an old Pettibone Super 5 that I need manuals for. I've searched all over the web with no luck. I think the Super 4 is the same.

Anyone know where I could find some?

I've talked to Pettibone and they claim to have no information. They can get some parts but I have to give them the part number which I can't find.

Sounds like a great idea but it won't let me register. I just get "

Please correct the following errors:

Please enter a value that matches the required format.

But it doesn't tell me what the required format is or where the error is.

Figured it out. Registration question doesn't allow caps but no indication of that.

Thanks!

Had a Pettibome for several years and found most things were interchangable with other Mfg parts or old military parts . Got a outer axle from military surplus outlet, clutch was same as a IH L190 truck I was scrapping, found the hydraulic piston parts at local hyd shop as kind of industry standard . replaced the master cylinder with one for Ford 3/4 pickup from around the same year 1956 - vacuum brake canister changed ot 66 Chev 2 ton truck . The 3-71 GM engine and the Allison Torque converter and box were also standard items - used a Vickers hyd pump with a main pump and a Power steering pump as one unit but separate flow rated .
