Turbo O-Ring Kit + misc.
I am taking my turbo off to install a exhaust brake and was wondering where to purchase the o-ring kit if not from the dealer. The second question is there anything else that I should do while I have the turbo off?

Before you reinstall the turbo make sure to coat the exhaust intake and down pipe with copper antifreeze. If you've never taken the turbo off and your truck is older you'll see what I mean those clamps are a nightmare to take off. The antiseize will make it a whole lot easier the next time around. Oh also a lot of people recommend doing both the upper and lower o-rings, since the lowers have a tendency to leak.

I've had very good luck here: http://members.***.net/kcmdieselperformance/gaskets.htm
Second item down will have all the gaskets and new turbo hold down bolts you'll need, for only $28.
