Look here for a place to buy the o-rings: http://www.itpdiesel.com/store.php?c...on=show_detail
Yes, the turbo does have to come completely off to replace the o-rings. It's not a hard job. Probably took me 1.5 hours the first time I did it. Now, I can have it out in just under 45 minutes. I would also suggest replacing the o-rings between the pedistal and the engine. Once the turbo is out, you've got access and it's only 4 bolts to remove the pedistal too. The same o-rings are used under the pedistal as used between it and the turbo. So, if you do the pedistal you'll need a total of 4 o-rings, or two of ITP's set.
