C turbo rebuild kit source

[goodguyzy]

Can not find a source for a rebuild kit. I would like to rebuild this myself as I do not want to send it off never to be seen again. thanks

If you have a diesel injection pump shop in your area they often rebuild turbos also. They may can help. We rebuilt the turbo on one of our farm tractors and it still workd fine. The John Deere mechanics could not beleive we did it and it worked much less held up.

Nothing wrong with rebuilding your own turbo if its done correctly. Shaft polished and the bearings/oil seals installed correctly. Might be able to take it apart and mic everything out to find parts if a kit is not available.

Don't forget they should be balanced too, it is spinning 30k+ rpm

I believe Jwaller on SS does it, there is a 2nd too (just don't remember who).

The individual components that need balancing are when they are made. As long as the wheels haven't contacted the housings or no debris has gone through it, they are balanced. You can even mix parts from 1 to another turbo and it'll be OK.
I have the p/n of the kit at work, but I'm on vacation.
Get with theses guys, you'll need to give them the numbers off the tag on the compressor housing.

Hey Will do you have the part # for the rebuild kit?

Just found this...interesting:
M35 "Deuce and a Half" turbo rebuild (lots of pictures!)!)

I've found a place selling OEM 3LJ-316 Schwitzer Turbo Rebuild kits for $135. Does this sound like a decent price?

I'll let you know as soon as I get a kit. I want to make sure it's the correct one. I don't want to refer a bunch of my SS brothers and have it be an incorrect kit.

Well you can tell us where and we can go from there.

 

[gimpyrobb]

Calm down, you were lazy enough to let someone else find the kit, you can wait till he verifys it too.

I searched the part numbers and got nothing...And how many times have we heard.. I will check it out first.. bla bla bla

Wow, really?.......

Guess I'll have to pull the turbo off the (otherwise) stripped engine I have in anticipation of getting it re-built!

 

[Coal Cracker]

I'm not lazy

The blue smoke on deceleration tells me I am in the market for some new seals.

WSCougarX, don't forget to post back if it is the right kit and how it works out for you!

Thanks,
Dave

I've found a source for them if you haven't.
