for a long time, there wasn't a haynes/chilton manual. i think i paid around $20 for my online manual for my 2006 but that was 4 years ago. it's a pdf document you save to your computer. somebody on here might know website names or have links. i'm sure there are free ones now too.
I also have a 96 XJ as well as my 05 WK. I downloaded a free factory service manual for my XJ from a XJ exclusive site. They have several years posted and seem to not suffer from any CR issues. Been on the site for years. Very handy to have.
I have probably 15 or so different FSMs for Jeeps and would happily trade with someone who had one for a 2006 WK. I'm sure they're out there, but I just haven't seen one cheap enough to pick up.
I've always been partial to hayne's manauls. I'm just now seeing both hayne's and chilton's manuals more readily available at advance auto, oreilly, and autozone for around $20-25.
I certainly don't mind spending $7 for a copy, but I hate supporting some guy who paid like $10 for a CD and is now selling copyrighted material for a profit. I got most of my FSMs from a guy like that, and ever since then I'm hesitant to let these bootleggers profit on my behalf.
I had to get the factory manual when I rebuilt my 06 WK a couple of years ago. I've got the electonic version. I used it many times. We replaced the frame at the front needed exact specs. Want a copy?
Ahhh....yes. I found that out after spending $26.00 on the Haynes POS book. Totally worthless. Half the damn thing are photos of other vehicles and generic crap. I should have known better as I tossed the Haynes I had for my box XJ.
