How to Find Part Numbers in this Manual
There are generally three methods to finding part numbers:
Method #1 - By Part Name
Method #2 - By Illustration
Method #3 - By Identification Number
Before beginning a search for a part number, you must have a few pieces of information about the
vehicle: year, model (i.e. car line code). The warranty plate on vehicles provides most of the
information needed (see page 18 – 44 of the Chassis, General Information). For example: suppose you
want to locate a part number for a 1971 Thunderbird rear brake backing plate. The year is 1971 and
car line code is “S”. Knowing this information will allow you to begin your search for the rear brake
backing plate.
Method #1 - By Part Name:
Step #1 – Because the
“Plate (rear brake
backing)” is a chassis
part, begin with the
Index in the Chassis
Parts Group.
