As long as a turbo has no damage to it when it went out, can an average joe get a rebuild kit and do the rebuild it themself?

 

I've never taken the center section apart, but it doesn't seem to overwhelming. You can get a rebuild kit for around 100 bucks. What kind of turbo? Here is a link for a great write-up on a rebuild of an hx35, so you know what's involved.

here are the Holset Manuals for all teh turbos, download the H1C.

Also make sure you get a genuine Holset rebuild kit.

 

I have an h1c but was lookin at a hy35 that needed rebuilt. Want to upgrade from the h1c but mine has some slop in it, so either way I would have to rebuild one. On a budget so lookin at my options.

Thank you for the links guys!

 

Then download the hy35 manual from the link...

 

one of my friends rebuilt a HX35 on his 24v, his works just fine, and he's kinda slow so if he can do it anyone can

 

So would it be smarter to get an hX35 or upgrade the housing and compressor wheel on the H1C?

 

What are your end goals for the truck?

 

Want some good power but not so crazy that I'm killin fuel mileage. Wont be hauling a lot very often, but I know I will be hauling some here and there it never fails that you get your self into a situation when ya have a diesel that will pull anything. ha ha

 

i'm kinda slow can i be your friend too
