Looking for the service manual for the whole bus, not just the engine...

Hello helpful forum. I just bought an awesome old school bus and I really want to find the service manual for it. I have located the service manual for the engine already (DT466E) but I'm also really looking for whatever manual shows me how to troubleshoot the air system, the brakes, inspect the wheel bearing condition, procedure for changing a tire, etc. I've always found and used the service manual for every automobile and motor cycle I've ever owned, so that's what I'm used to. My bus is a 1997 International 3800, DT466E engine, AT545 transmission, and has a dog-nose Blue Bird body. Thanks so much.

Given that the body is by Blue Bird and the chassis is by International I don't think you'll find a single manual for the whole bus.

Further, since International put various engine and transmission combinations in their chassis I don't think there's a single manual available for the whole chassis either

I have an '04 IC CE200 (International) with a T444e and an Allison2000 and I've had to find individual service manuals for the engine, transmission and the body.

There are folks here that have worked on buses for years, if I'm wrong I trust they'll correct the record when they see this.
