Search, Bookmarks, and Diagram Detail
Text access and navigation: Repair instructions and specification tables support text search, but some illustration labels do not. There are 1,140 PDF bookmarks; some parent entries lead to a different section. Small hydraulic-diagram labels and connector pin numbers need zooming.
Supplied as one printable, 5,007-page PDF, including 417 otherwise blank pages with only running headers, footers, or separator lines. There is no separate cover or addendum.
Engine, Drivetrain, Chassis, and Body Work
This selection of covered work highlights major repair areas rather than reproducing the complete contents. Further topics include fuel-tank draining and accelerator-pedal replacement.

Engine repair: Step-by-step teardown and assembly for the 3.7L and 5.0L, including cylinder heads, pistons, camshafts, timing drives, lubrication components, and in-vehicle repairs.
-
Transmission and clutch: 6R80 automatic and MT82 manual fault diagnosis, removal, internal inspection, and reassembly, plus clutch service and transmission electrical testing.
-
Rear axle and driveline: Ford 8.8-inch differential repair, Traction-Lok overhaul, Torsen inspection, ring-and-pinion setup, driveshaft troubleshooting, and differential-cooler diagnosis.
-
Suspension and steering: Front and solid-axle rear suspension repairs, GT500 Vehicle Dynamic Suspension diagnosis, EPAS service, and alignment checks.
-
Brakes and wheels: Two-, four-, and six-piston front brake configurations, rear discs, parking brakes, hydraulic bleeding, ABS/stability control, TPMS training, and Road Force® testing.
-
Electrical diagnosis: Pinpoint tests for climate control, module networks, PATS key programming, lighting, audio, parking aid, and supplemental restraints.
-
Body repair: Convertible-top service, glass adjustment, structural sectioning, weld-bonding, corrosion protection, and subframe repair.
Best suited to technicians who already know Ford diagnostic methods and have a compatible scan tool and the specified workshop equipment.
Vehicle Identification and Engine Repair
VIN and Vehicle Certification label information links body series, engine, paint, interior trim, axle ratio, transmission, spring codes, and powertrain calibration to the vehicle configuration. These references help distinguish base, GT, convertible, Shelby, and GT500 applications when selecting parts or procedures.
3.7L and 5.0L: Detailed internal work extends to the valvetrain, oil pumps and pans, intake components, and engine support insulators. Compression, cylinder-leakage, and oil-pressure testing provide ways to investigate mechanical engine concerns before choosing a repair.
Engine removal coverage: The 3.7L procedures address removal and installation with either transmission. For the 5.0L, installation is covered for manual and automatic versions, but removal is supplied only for automatic models. The separate manual-transmission engine-removal procedure is absent.
Shelby/GT500 limits: Included 5.8L work addresses accessory and supercharger drives, intake-air and engine-control components, exhaust, clutch service, suspension, and the front subframe. Section 303-01C, the 5.8L engine-mechanical chapter, is not included.
Cooling and Fuel-System Service
Engine-cooling material includes pressure diagnosis, draining, filling, bleeding, and component replacement involving radiators, coolant pumps, thermostats, and housings. The supercharger cooling circuit has its own testing, flushing, bleeding, pump, reservoir, and radiator procedures.
Fuel-system work covers pressure testing, pump-module replacement, fuel rails and injectors, throttle bodies, and fuel-pump control modules. EVAP component procedures address the canister, purge valve, and vent solenoid; broader emissions diagnosis requires the separate PC/ED publication.
6R80, MT82, and Differential Repair
6R80: Early- and late-build assemblies have separate teardown and reassembly procedures. Coverage reaches clutch packs, the pump, main control, torque-converter diagnosis, fluid service, and adaptive drive-cycle checks. Solenoid Body Strategy information connects identification checks with the required calibration-data download.
MT82 and clutch controls: Internal procedures reach the countershaft, output shaft, synchronizers, shift rails, case, and seals. Related service includes the clutch slave cylinder and shifter components. TR6060 Section 308-03B is not supplied, although the 5.8L clutch procedures are included.
Rear axle: Bearing service, ring-gear backlash adjustment, tooth-contact inspection, and Traction-Lok clutch-pack assembly accompany axle-shaft procedures that distinguish Traction-Lok and Torsen arrangements. Differential-cooler coverage includes diagnosis and replacement of the pump, cooler, and lines.
Suspension, EPAS, and Vibration Diagnosis
Front suspension work includes lower arms, stabilizer bars and links, strut/spring assemblies, bearings, hubs, spindles, and wheel studs. Rear procedures cover springs, standard and GT500 shocks, the Panhard rod, lateral stiffener, upper arm, and axle-mounted upper-arm bushing.
Alignment diagnosis addresses camber, caster, toe, ride height, ball-joint condition, drift/pull, tire-wear patterns, and wheel/tire runout.
GT500/SVT suspension: Vehicle Dynamic Suspension material explains Normal and Sport modes, VDM network inputs, valve-solenoid control, DTC diagnosis, replacement, and configuration programming. The 5.8L front lower-arm procedure calls for engine lifting bracket 303-D087 and support bar 303-F070 to access the steering-gear bolts.
NVH fault isolation: Road tests, symptom charts, and the Frequency and RPM Calculations Worksheet distinguish tire, driveshaft, engine, accessory, and engine-firing vibrations. Referenced equipment includes Electronic Vibration Analyzer 100-F027, EngineEAR 107-R2100, EngineEAR/ChassisEAR 107-R2102, and MTS 4000 analyzer 257-00018.
EPAS instructions identify internal power-relay damage and persistent module faults as risks of incorrect connector handling. Rear suspension procedures also explain how tightening affected control-arm, Panhard-rod, upper-arm, or shock fasteners outside the curb-height position can damage bushings or produce incorrect clamp load.
Electrical, Climate, and Body Systems
Starter-circuit and charging-system tests supplement HS-CAN/MS-CAN communication diagnosis, module configuration, anti-theft procedures, and BCM/SJB troubleshooting.
A/C service includes refrigerant recovery, evacuation, charging, flushing, and leak diagnosis. SRS procedures cover depowering and inspection after deployment.
Convertible-top adjustment and hydraulic bleeding sit alongside glass adjustment and body repairs involving structural panels, frame members, sectioning, weld-bonding, corrosion protection, and subframes.
Diagnostic Charts and Illustrated References
Illustrated material includes 6R80 Hydraulic Circuits, Transmission Connector Layouts, and Engine Lubrication Components — Exploded View. Additional references include Disc Brake System — Exploded View, Convertible Top — Exploded View, and Subframe and Components — Exploded View, Front.
DTC/PID charts, symptom charts, and pinpoint tests support fault tracing. The covered assemblies have torque tables, approved-fluid and material specifications, pressure-test data, wear and deflection limits, adjustment information, electrical test values, and special-tool references.
Required References and Workshop Safety
The separate Ford Wiring Diagrams and Powertrain Control/Emissions Diagnosis (PC/ED) publications are not supplied. Electrical tests refer to numbered wiring-diagram cells, while additional driveability and emissions diagnosis is directed to PC/ED. Routine maintenance schedules are referenced to the Owner’s Guide.
Work covered here involves compressed coil springs, pressurized cooling and A/C systems, brake hydraulics, SRS components, and heavy drivetrain or suspension assemblies. Observe the factory warnings, lifting points, support methods, and specified tools before starting repairs.
Selected Oil-Pressure and Axle Backlash Specifications
For the 3.7L engine at normal operating temperature, the oil-pressure specification is a minimum of 30 psi at 1,500 rpm. The 5.0L specification at normal operating temperature is 207–276 kPa (30–40 psi) at 2,000 rpm.
The Ford 8.8-inch rear-axle specifications list ring-gear backlash of 0.203–0.304 mm (0.008–0.012 in), alongside the differential adjustment and tooth-contact inspection procedures.
