I am taking my turbo apart to rebuild it with new bearings and seals. I have a Borg Warner gm 8 turbo that is off of a 97-00 6.5L diesel motor and cant seem to fine any disassembly procedures for it. If anyone knows where i can get them or even has them plz tell.

Oh and also. If anybody knows where i can get a rebuild kid for one of these turbos that would be great too!

 

Anybody??

They rebuilt my turbo... $$$$ costly but they do awesome work.. i'm sure they can get you the parts you need.

 

Nice. Called them about an hour ago. They have a rebuild kit for 97$$. Not bad. Now all i need is rebuild instructions and toque settings...They are looking to see if they can find some for me. Does anybody know where i can get them? Dissasembly/Installation instructions??

 

did you ask them if the kit comes with instructions? Do you have the part number for the turbo?

 

just have them do it for you unless you have some kinda magical balancing fingers or somethin!

 

that's true.. just because you have a new kit doesn't mean it's balanced. when they rebuild, they balance the rotating assembly to ensure maximum performance.

 

The shaft is fine. It doesnt need to be balenced. I only wanted to replace the seals beouse they were bad. and if im doing that i mite as well do the bearing too seeing how they come with the kit. Im not going to pay some huge amount of money when i can have this done for the price of the kit and do it myself... Also he said he is going to send me some intructions with it. Thanks man.

 

cool! well, good luck and post some info once it's done!
