That is a great exploded view for sure, but the AIM will also tell you all the torque specs.

I have the AIM on my SD card in my phone so I can reference it while in the garage.
As an engineer / draftsman it strikes a nerve with me because they did not have CAD back then and a lot of detail is lost or missing. It was all hand drawn / photo copied / pasted.
It was the best they had at the time, but I think having BOTH the AIM and a modern version would be helpful.

im not saying to substitue the paragon catalog for the AIM, but it is easier to read, you can see the parts that are generally available and its easier to find the page for the part you are looking at. Some AIMs dont have an index.

Its free too. Just go to the website and request one. Mine just arrived in the mail friday
