Hi there, hoping to have this answered today. Wanting to order a 772441-5001s Garrett Powermax for my 2005 F250. One website says that I need an install kit for it and the other's say that everything is included, anybody installed one of these and know for sure?

This is the kit I was told I need...

Riffraff Diesel: Garrett 6.0L Turbo Install Kit

 

Yes I would change the Gaskets each time my turbo has been out

And so do most folks use that kit when taking turbo in/out

make shure to put Antiseize on them 3 Bolts and also on the Marmon Clamp Flanges they get Cooked in theere and Like to Seize

 

You can reuse the Bolts if theycome out OK

You might be able to Buy just the Orings for cheap from Tousley Ford or your Local Ford Dealer

Hang on I should have a Parts#

 

here ya go First number is FORD and second is International


3C3Z 9T514 AD / 1840053C96 -----------------------------------Turbo Hardware "Mounting" Kit

If you have an International dealer Close by they are usually alot cheaper give them the part# but they wont be able to verify its the right part for you as FORDS are not in there system. But as long as its a Good Part# they can verify its the turbo Hardware kit you should be good to go


OK a Search on Tousley says it has a updated part# for FORD

<TABLE border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=5 width="100%" align=center><TBODY><TR><TD noWrap>Old Part Number</TD><TD align=right>3C3Z 9T514 AD</TD></TR><TR><TD noWrap>New Part Number</TD><TD align=right>3C3Z9T514AG </TD></TR><TR><TD>Part Name</TD><TD align=right>KIT - HARDWARE </TD></TR><TR><TD>MSRP</TD><TD align=right>$11.67</TD></TR><TR><TD>Core</TD><TD align=right>$0.00</TD></TR><TR><TD>Online Price</TD><TD align=right>$7.70</TD></TR><FORM method=get name=basepart action=index.cfm><TR><TD colSpan=2 align=center><INPUT class=cartButton value="Add to Cart" type=button> </TD></TR></FORM></TBODY></TABLE>

But its only $$7.70$$

Lots cheaper than $$43.00$$ from other vendor

here where I found it below check it out keep in mind I punched in my 2003 so use the new part# but punch in your truck year


2003 FORD F-350 SUPER DUTY Parts - Tousley Ford Parts Depot

 

Well they have two turbo mounting kits, one for "Ford" turbo's and one for "Garrett" turbo's. The only issue I have is that he is the only one who has told me I need the Garrett kit while every other website has told me that everything is included for install. Looks like this Garrett kit has some little spacers?

 

The Kit in the Link?????

even the OEM Turbo uses them little spacers on the Bolts so they may Not Contain the Little spacers in some since they are reusable

as long as the turbo is a Direct Bolt-on any Ford Kit will work FWIW

I think they just want you to buy there Hardware kit Looks like a Huge Mark-Up in Price IMO

 

the Last OEM Turbo hardware kit I got had 3 new bolt spacers in it

 

Here are pics of the two kits. I agree with replacing gaskets and o-rings but those spacers add $32 to the cost of the kit and I see no harm in reusing them if they are already there?

 

The spacers you see in the kit are for 2003 model year engine applications only. If your truck is a mid-2004 or newer, the spacers are not used, and therefore not needed.

 

Alright so I need to check the engine build date? When the head gaskets were done it required the 18MM ones, does that help determine the build date?

 

If your truck is a 2005 model year as your signature indicates, you don't need those spacers. I probably have a million of those spacers sitting around my workbenches at work and in my garage with the number of years I've been working on these trucks.

 

Perfect, so assuming the Powermax is truly a drop-in turbo then I won't need them, thanks

 

And I learned something New Today thanks Mike

I knew the Rear Bolt changed and a Vein was Added Exhaust side IIRC

and real early ones have that Snap to Connect oil feed

But I didnt know about the spacers



Mike
Is the Pedistall Modified in a Way that makes it so No Need for spacers??? or just for rear Bolt

thanks

 

The spacers are a 2003 thing Bennie. 04's and up don't need them at all. All the OP needs is the cheapest turbo gasket kit. The powermax is a direct bolt in for the stock turbo and only a trained eye could tell the differences.

 

I see thanks Tim

You must be keeping pretty Busy at work anymore dont see you on here as Often anymore
