The pedestal-to-engine o-ring was leaking, so the turbo got removed, and new o-rings got installed, and while it was off I put a plug in the end of the pedestal.
When removing the nuts on the studs for the turbine inlet (aka collector, turbo flange, whatever you want to call it) one of them cam off REAL hard, and long story short, one stud is crossthreaded, and the other is kinda messy, so I'm going to just put brand new studs in.
The Questions: What is the size/pitch of these studs so I know what to order?
Do people prefer to buy OEM pieces, or SS, or use bolts instead of studs?
Thanks for the tips, I'm looking forward to getting the truck back on the road!
I know I've seen them for sale somewhere before can't remember tho but get the stock ones the problem with ss is you'll gall the threads as you tighten them down then be in the same boat
