I was given a Dodge Titan on the m500 with the 440-3. It has been sitting and needs a bit of love. I was wondering if anyone happens to have any of the manuals, I have been searching and keep hitting dead ends.

Help me obi-wan Kenobi you're my only hope.... opps wrong forum

Owners manuals are generally not worth the paper they're printed on. They don't tell you the details you want or need. Go through and identify every system in the RV. With a vehicle so old it might be hard to track down information, but if you use Google you might find manuals for each component. Those are the guide to how to operate and service each item in the RV.

A quick Google search turned up this:

You are welcome to contact them and see what it takes to get the 'Free' manual.

Good Luck!

Alas another dead end, I'm fearful that the file will be a nasty virus of sorts. I typed in 75 dodge titan into the search bar and got 75 dodge titan click here to download. so curiosity got the better of me, so I typed in 75 titang into the search bar and got "download titang." Back to the drawing board

I was afraid of that link, so I passed it on with the word free in apostrophes. To expect a website or YouTube video to stay viable for a 43-year-old RV manual, an RV that was in limited production, seemed like a stretch.

In addition, even if you found a build sheet or wiring diagram, in 43 years of ownership I'd think things might have been changed from the original. You will have better luck exploring your own RV and research what you find.

If you go to present RV manufacturer's websites, you'll often find owners manuals for their products. Reading a couple of them will give you an indication of what information is available in manuals. I find the manuals for the various systems far more useful, especially when they need service or repair.

You can still purchase these manuals online through eBay and i believe through Dodge. I just purchased one for my 77 Pace Arrow on a Dodge m400 chassis. It was a paper reprint so no worries for a virus

I'm going to have to take a look, seems like Napa is going to be a good source for finding parts. Hopefully I can find a couple more parts places so that I can shop around for prices
