If I were to buy a turbo off of eBay and it was to have side-to-side or end-to-end shaft play, how much would it cost to fix it?

 

I looked at doing this same thing aways back. Somebody on here sent me a link to a company that sold rebuild kits for most turbos out there for under $100 if I remember right. Pretty sure it was bow2no1, if he doesn't reply in here just drop him a PM. He's the master when it comes to ebay turbo's

 

HTT sells anything you need to rebuild them.

The typical price for a kit is under $100?

How involved of a process is it? Would one need a press, anvil, special alignment tools or anything?


What's typically done, even? New raceways and bearings?

 

That I can not tell you, I have seen one apart but dont know what all is needed to assemble and disassemble. Here is an exploded pic of a HX35 and a list of all the parts. Pics

must be lookin at one of "saulg" turbo's that guy has a ton! i have bought off him a few times.

i don't remember now where to get the rebuild kits.
usually the guys who offers them on ebay can get kits for other turbos.
just search ebay for "holset"
