turbo carnage
well i found the source of my problem looks like my motor chewed some turbo fins it still runs great and i dont notice any new smoke so im guessing they passed right through so what are my options for rebuilding is there a kit available for this turbo or what should i be looking into doing to get my truck back on the road im again getting real upset with this truck i have put nothing but money into this truck on the drive back home from up north i have to deal with the starter giving out the rear tank starting to leak the turbo blowing up and my seat broke.....but for some damn reason i still love my truck

ya i guess the bearings are shot but the shaft may be bent as well it looks to be but i have not had it apart yet the shaft is loose as hell side to side but tight front to back and i live in kelowna bc canada so maybe ill just start by inquiring with the local diesel shops i have been looking on e bay and i have heard there is parts on there for this turbo i just have yet to find them
