Something out there like ALLdata?

nunan · June 17, 2009

Hey guys, i'm wondering if you can elighten me. I'm looking for a site or program similar to alldata or mitchell ondemand but for medium - heavy duty trucks. specifically buses. I always hated getting asked questions by the SW or parts guys who were asking on behalf of other shops..and now i have no choice but to do the same. so i wanna put a stop to that and get some books for here (harder than you think actually..) so if there's a centralized site like AllData or MOD that'd be awesome. idc about price, it'd pay for itself in no time. Thanks in advance for the help.

Alldata is cars only. Nothing is specific to buses, and it depends on the MFR, of course. Buses will be REALLY challenging to compile an information source on, as they are just different enough from the truck to screw things up. I assume you're referring to MD buses and not HD coaches. MOD does have a MD/HD program, but you're likely to be disappointed in it. If you contact your rep I'm sure they'll let you try it free for 30 days or so.

You have ISIS on disc, right? Exactly what chassis are you referring to? You know FTL is a REAL PIA to get info out of, and won't release their ServiceLink software to the aftermarket?

+1 on that. Parts are hard to get for the FCC. Let alone information.
