I need two new turbos, DD #5106250. I have rebuilt one of them twice now and it keeps blowing out exhaust at the cartridge. I think I figured out why. The other turbo on that engine has a different exhaust housing(obviously someone put the wrong one on at some point) so the two on that engine are not identical and I think the imbalance may be messing with it. I'd like to just replace both with new, not rebuilt. And I wish I could find non-China quality replacements. Any ideas?

I'll check when I get to work, but IIRC you have the obsolete exhaust housings. I've tried to chase this through engineering a couple of times, but I never get a satisfactory answer. But for you, I'll chase it again.
Stand by....

What's the deal with turbos lately.
My truck turbo is worn out. With 4 bolts and 4 hoses its non big deal right?.
Going on 8 hours to take it out.
First pull all the air intake hose, then the charge air hoses and while I'm in there the cooler. Now come the fun parts.
Pull the battery, battery box, solenoid on the box. Drop the exhaust and have it rotate to get clearance then you can pull the turbo off the studs. 3 twists, 3 turns and an inversion and it will clear the space you made from removing all the stuff. Makes working on a boat seem easy.
I'm guessing 4 to 6 hours to reinstall tomorrow. What a fun job its been

Thank you. Thank you.
I found some rebuilds online but I'd rather go with new and be done with it for a few years.

Well, if you gave me the right part number they're not the obsolete ones.
My distributor has new Garretts in stock. $995 ea. Let me know if you want me to order them for you.

Ummm, what does the Borg Warner tag underneath that one say? Detroit didn't use the Borg, but it's possible they made a replacement for a Garrett. Just seems a little odd.

That shows up as a cartridge which interchanges with a Garrett number. Can't get to application right now. My resources here are a little limited so I'm going to do a little more digging tomorrow before we place the order.
