truck is bone stock!.bought it from the original owner he said he never turned a nut on the motor... i was thinking turbo also but if it was the turbo wouldnt it not work at all after it was blown?.. the truck seems to run fine now just some of that white blue smoke only once in a while.. alot worse when i have a heavy load on!..

check the pedestal behind and around the turbo and see if any oil is leaking. Bearings and shaft play. my buddies did it also only sometimes on colder days though blew alot of white smoke because the turbo bearing was going out and had some oil in the intake pipe right in front of the turbo because of oil. pull your intake pipe and check if theres oil in it.
