Thanks Tim for that info. I will call Beans tomorrow and get one coming. I don't feel like rebuilding mine, a year ago I was going to get a D66 but started procrastinating. Also thanks DRRXR, i will compare your info to my printout.

 

yep, D66 would work fine for you. heck my stock turbo still has minimal play in my truck, but it still has the stock housing on it. Glenn, remember if you run shaeffers i'm pretty sure they give you free oil analysis for using their oil. might check that out. haha.

 

Thanks! I just posted in another tread asking if you saw this thread. Guess you have!!!!
