Hello,
I am rebuilding my turbo right now and I found one discrepancy in the turbo rebuild process. When I disassembled the turbo (which looks like is has never been done) the thrust bearing was facing the brass part towards the inside of the turbo (where the main bearing is. However, in this thread (https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?75970-Turbo-Rebuild-3LJ-319-(Whistler) ) the thrust bearing is installed the other way....
Basically, which was does the bearing go? Otherwise the turbo was very easy to rebuild!
