It's easy to see Mike. When you pull off the turbo and look into the baby butt there is a little pin that sticks out there. You'll see it. Then there is a little indent on the turbo where that pin goes into.
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.
Sounds great, like somebody there to make sure I get it right plus throwing some of these down.

OK, see it Rick, got it. 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...

Reason: Reps
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.
I have an extra set of pedistal o-rings that you can have Mike.
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..

you can reused the old one if you dont beat it up taking it out..i went to the dealer to get a one...it comes in a 4 pack and they wont break it down i gave a couple away on here a while back..
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...
