AMI Parts Manual Supplements

 
     AMI Pink Pages
    
     These are additional pages that were added as supplements to the AMC parts manual with 
     details of parts specific to the locally assembled cars. Although the part numbers
     themselves probably won't help much with a restoration, they are a great resourse to help
     identify parts that differ from the US models. These pages were pink in the original
     manuals for easy identification.

     here with colours that were different to those used on US models.

Australian Suspension Information

     Many of the ront suspension ball joints and bushes are shared with the corresponding US
     model, however there are some differences, particularly relating to the steering components
     as you would expect with the conversion to right hand drive.
