Default Parts Cross Reference - Try Again

I posted the following in the General Chat section and got zip. Maybe there are more wrenchers than posters in this section of the forums. Once again:
Is there a Harley parts cross reference book or manual? In other words a book where you could look up a part number and find out which models it was used on. For example, Mercury Marine published a "Where Used" manual that pretty much listed every part they ever made and its' application. An invaluable reference.

Check in the book section of the JP Cycles catalog. They list a couple of resource books, but mostly for older bikes.

Sho' nuff. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. The "What Fits What" book goes to '83 and the parts cross reference only goes to '51 so both are a little older than I was looking for. It gives me hope that the later model information is out there somewhere, but obscure.
