Gradually the diesel engines spread to the boneless scale “C”. The basic 2 and 3 axle diesel models “W-1000D” and “WT-1000D” were used for road trains with a total mass of 29.5-36.3 tons. Since 1965, the production of heavy trucks “Ford” began to transfer to a new plant in Louisville, Kentucky, soon turned into the world’s largest manufacturer of such equipment. Its design capacity was 336 trucks a day. The new machines used frames of high-strength steel, hypoid main gear, 2-circuit pneumatic braking system, front shock absorbers and cabins with anti-corrosion protection. At the same time, they produced medium-duty camouflaged trucks “C7000” and “C8000” and main tractors of the “W-9000” series with an upgraded cab above the engine. The first major changes were noted in 1988 with the appearance of a new series of trunk hood tractors “A” or “Aeromax”, which included 2 and 3 axle models “LA-9000” and “LTA-9000” with a streamlined cab for work in the composition of road trains with a gross mass of 36-37.2 tons. In 1996, their development was the model “LTA-3500 Aeromax” (6 ? 4) with 470-horsepower engine “Detroit Diesel”, 13-speed gearbox “Eton” and rear air suspension. Minivans “Aerostar” (Aerostar) and Canadian “Windsor” (Windsor) are offered as vans and do not differ in driving performance and comfort from cars. The corporation “Ford” at the end of the 20th century was considered the world’s largest manufacturer of vehicles for the transport of goods. In 1999, its plants produced over 3.1 million trucks and buses. We'll assume you're ok with this, but you can opt-out if you wish. Ford service manuals generally include most repairs for the vehicle including chassis, electrical, engine, and body (for 1949 and newer vehicles). Ford repair manuals from 1965 to the present typically cover just one year, while older ones cover one or just few years, unlike aftermarket manuals which typically cover a range of years. This means that the Ford service manual is much more specific and detailed than an aftermarket book. We stock car and truck manuals for Fords from 1909 until the present. The amount of repair specifications in these books varies from year to year. These manuals contain only lists of specifications without the step by step procedures you would find in a repair manual.
