X3 on that. Sometimes, next to the CSM, I copy the appropriate pages and put them in page protectors next to the parts.

Absolutely on the old shop! Sadly, my service manual isn't a lot of help. My car is a '62 Cutlass and I have the factory manuals for '61 and '62 that cover this car. The service instructions in them are for the standard differential, but my car has the optional limited slip differential and these books don't even mention that. There must be some supplement somewhere that does, but I don't have it.
