not sure on manual but there is a video for sale out there. there isn't a ton to know about rebuilding them. if you can rebuild a motor, you can rebuild a trans. You just need to spend a few hundred bucks on tools and a jig.

If you don't want to spend the money on a jig I made one out of a old 3 rib case and its just setting here if you would want to borrow it and promise to give it back but only if you promise

Truthfully the only special tools you need is a pinion nut socket, an old tranny case cut out, and some skills.

be careful if you do the homemade jig!!! I made one for 3 ribs, rebuilt about a dozen trannys and then found out every one of them was off just a little on the 3rd/4th fork. It was a BLAST re-rebuilding them after that. My 6-rib jig always worked out good for me. it is well worth the money for the jig I ended up buying.

I have to agree. Really don't need much to do these things. Pinion nut socket, socket for the screw in side pieces for the diff bearings, a good shop press and a good bearing separator (clam shell) and your in business. Good common sense and some experience and you are set. They are really simple once you do a couple you will see.
