Default Good Repair Manual?

Hey guys, im looking for a good repair manual i can purchase to start doing some of the more complicated work on my car. I need to replace the rear and front UCA's and definitely do not want to pay a shop to do it as i dont have the cash atm. Anyone know where i can find a good DIY online, and a manual for future reference? Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the double post, but i managed to pull this up. http://www.helminc.com/helm/product2...404&itemtype=N Hows that look? Although i noticed it seems to cover everything but the coupe lx model with the f22a1. Know anything about that? Though i cant imagine theyre much if any different than the same model 4 door chasis.

Haynes and Chilton are reliable repair manuals. I have both books for my Accord though, because sometimes one helps me more than the other

Helms is the company that makes the Honda service manual which is the one you're looking at. That is the best.

The PDF version (which is also free) can be found here. I don't think its %100 all there, but it does have most of the 1st book which is for all major engine repairs. You have to make an account to download it.

Very cool, thanks so much. This will help until i actually get my hands on that manual lol. Maybe im just bad at reading manuals but in the entirety of chapter 12(Suspension) the only mention i see of control arms is how to check if theyre faulty. on 12-23 step 5 it says "Replace the upper arm assembly as follows if there is any play." Then 12-24 goes right into Damper Removal?
