It's realitively easy after you do it once. I'm hoping we can get together, I'll be able to help you out. I've done it twice now.

Mike. Look at the pic of Mike's turbo, I think the first pic. You can see the round hole for the pin where the BB fits to.

Sounds great, like somebody there to make sure I get it right plus throwing some of these down.

I see a kit from Guzzle with the bolts and all the nesisary hardware for a complete O-ring change including the pedistal o-rings, should I get that kit or just the o-ring kit??? Gonna order as soon as you guys let me know. Need some anti-sieze also, wonder if he got that?? Tried to rep some of you for the help but you know, get ya when I can...

The turbo re-install kit has all of the o-rings that you need for the turbo. You can get the anti-seize at Auto Zone or your favorite auto parts store. I got mine at Auto Zone.

Was thinking the same thing Rick, the whole kit. We take vacations always in my truck and it would be a sense of security in the glove, might do the same thing. Jeffrey, I grab that while i'm out, was looking at the one stop shopping, lol.

Thanks Adam, prolly gonna get the turbo kit from Guzzle for now, an extra set is always good just in case. Are those the Viton o-rings, sorry, don't want to be picky?? Also, where do you get the V clamps for this turbo, Manny said thats all i'll need?? Are they the same size as the stocker and can I get away with using my old one??? Just seen your post Ron, Nice pic, I can't miss that shot..

Cool. As many times you pulled the turbo before, it wouldn't suprise me, lol. Sounds good, I'll be careful on the v-clamp removal. Just got the anti-sieze so i'm good there. Edit: Just checked the tracking no#, it'll be here this coming Mon...

So I will wait for you to put your on and then you can come down and help me The guys have put a lot of good stuff out here for us this should help the install for sure. Thanks to all
