There is a Haynes for 97-99. But, the FSM is infinitely more detailed
from what I've heard. If you intend to do a lot of work yourself,
consider it money VERY well-spent. The FSM is written specifically to
your year truck (there's a few points in the Haynes that say "97 only"
for example) and the same reference the factory mechanics use.
