The $78 is the difference in price from the rebuild kit w/o wheel and rebuild kit with wheel.
$40 + $4.80 shipping, hmmm maybe I should just buy it and replace it. But I'm so damn cheap nowa days. Maybe tomorrow.

So I looked at my wheel again last night, really got my head in there so I could get a good look. I could see that the wheel was chipped and scrached up on the edges, so I am going to order a new wheel now.
Is there a better wheel than the stock or w.w.? I do a lot of towing and hauling so maybe the w.w. is better for me?

I just bought the stock wheel for $44.80. Its the cheapest and I have not had any surge so why would I need a wheel to reduce surge right? Oh well, hope I made the right choice. Should be doing this Sunday night and during next week. I need to use the truck Saturday.

HOLY CRAP! Getting the turbo out was soo hard! I got everything off it in 30 min or less but the two clamps that hold the exhust pipes to it would not come off. I got the bolts off them real easy but they were so stuck. Took me 1.5hrs to get it out and i cut my finger so bad i could use a couple stiches. Damn!
But its out, and I will rebuild it tonight.

Blood, sweat, and tears...Hope the rebuild goes smooth for you.
Usually a few taps with a hammer and punch breaks those clamps loose, pretty easily for all the ones I've ever removed.
Good luck.

I hammered them so hard i bent them real good. The back one was just too stuck and I could not get to the bottom of it with a hammer. I'll clean everything real good and probably get new clamps. That should allow them to come off easy next time.

Put anti-seize paste on the junction and they will come apart easy. Also soaking overnight with penetrant helps too.

You can do it a few different ways
Here is one way Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums - beanhead6D5's Album: EBPV delete
The other would be new pedestal Riffraff Diesel: Garrett Non-EBPV/ Blank Pedestal 99.5-03 and new outlet Riffraff Diesel: Garrett GTP38 High Flow Outlet

I just finished pluging the ebpv hole, came out good.
But then I noticed that something is broken off on top of the pedestal. I saw it in the bottom of my turbo the other night but didn't really think about it. Is this important? Do I need a new pedestal now?
