More Pics of the project...
http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...iftanymore.jpg Now as I said before it had tons of rust... I took the taillight off and a chunk of bondo fell off http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...reRustBack.jpg And this is the floor in the truck, I know it was a waste of time but when you work out where I work you gotta keep busy and this was what I did.... It was good practice as far as learning to weld and bodywork/painting.... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...tRustFloor.jpg And there was also a lot of rust around the windsheild the guy who owned it ( a true farmer) had siliconed all the way around the windsheild so tons of rust I could actually stick my hand in the A pillar! http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...ustAPillar.jpg So after some welding and such it turned out all right http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...illarFixed.jpg Then there was the blown head gasket last winter... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...HeadGasket.jpg Took the time to clean it up and fix every other part underhood that could give me problems... all new hoses/vac lines/ fuel lines.... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...hedRebuild.jpg And this is last summer in my homeMadePaint booth.... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...PaintBooth.jpg I know there aren't any actual turbo setup pics yet but I will follow thru with this so until then thanks for any input. |

When are you gonna lift it? I wanna see some dual cases, and 37" boggers on that thing.

As for the truck it needs more power to turn some 37" tires cause it sure as hell couldn't do it very well stock! So I'll finish the HMT setups on these two this spring'ish and then I might have some money left over for the 4X4. |

ebay Rebuild "kits" are, as always, a scam, inviting people to believe they can rebuild a turbo themelves with just a hammer, a screw driver an no balancing!! Since they do not even include the proper sized bearings that are always needed to cure shaft play, you wake up short of a hundred bucks and with a bunch of extra parts that generally don't even need to be replaced, the wrong bearings and an no warranty but the one that this turbo will fail again in minutes. |
