    Changing D to a C TURBO

    That's what I thought. I just wanted to clarify that.

    Changing D to a C TURBO

    What's wrong with putting the same parts back in that came out, less seals and bearings? Rusty, are you referring to replacing hard parts?

    Changing D to a C TURBO

    You do need a special socket to remove the turbine and compressor wheel though. I don't know where to get the socket but they can be had. I've never rebuilt a turbo... Yet...

    Changing D to a C TURBO

    Mine will get up to 12 psi pulling a grade right now with the LDT. Will do the same pulling something heavy. I just have to be mindful to keep it around 10psi on longer grades with throttle control.

    If it isn't burning oil and doesn't have a lot of shaft play $400 is fair. If you can find one that needs a rebuild for $150-$200, a rebuild will cost you about $300. So for $450-$500 you could have basically a new turbo.

    Changing D to a C TURBO

    Have you checked the fluid level in the master cylinder lately? Still, you need to go through each hub and check each wheel cylinder as you go. My brakes felt fine albeit a bit weak when I got my truck, no signs of leaking brakes either. When I did go through and pack all the bearings I found...
