I did the upgrade back in September. You will need to make some decisions: Oil drain location CDRV connections Turbo exhaust routing Get an EGT and boost gauge if you aren't going to do head studs Be careful with getting the old exhaust manifold bolts off, i sprayed mine 1-2 times per day...

I replaced my wiper motor today. I cut the ground strap (to get the grommet off) on the old one because i didnt realize it was a ground strap. Any suggestions on what to do with the new one i installed? It didnt come with one because it is a remanufactured motor. THanks.

okay thanks! And to refill the system, the mix goes into the reservoir next to the radiator or into the where the radiator caps is? Also, i assume it is best to premix? Do you just use a clean container to mix it in? *Disregard my question about where to add the mix, look at the LO and it...

in the spare bottle to use to top off as well?

so the bottle you keep handy to top off the coolant reservoir, is it a 50/50 mix or just water? Also, so when you go to refill the system, you put the mixture into the reservoir next to the radiator right? I realize this might be a stupid question but this is the first time i am doing it...

That is what I was planning on doing...hopefully only have to make one trip. Where did you get thread sealant that is compatible with diesel?

what size fittings did you use? Thread size?

Unless it is required by your state, ditch the muffler. I have 3" straight pipe off my turbo, it isn't loud and sounds nice.

No problem. The only negative to mine is that I wish they would have routed so it dumped more out the side, oh well. Forgot to mention it as well, I think it is 3" pipe the whole way back from the turbo.

You dont have to modify the frame, just have a good exhaust shop do it. My exhaust runs inside the frame, it was a pain for them to do, but that is what i paid for.

I would recommend getting new bolts for the IP cover when you go to turn up the fuel...I say that because I snapped one of them, the end result was replacing the IP. I don't remember the size off hand but can get it if you want it.

Has the injector pump been replaced or rebuilt since you got it?

Well the turbo will seem like less of a PITA now...I just finished up my turbo install, just havent gotten around to writing anything up yet. Glad the truck is back up and running though.

Sorry if that was not clear. I pulled mine out and am having some trouble getting it installed again. Looking for some input on how to get it back in without damaging anything. The TM just says basically to put it back in.

so what happens if it does not stay engaged? I ask because i pulled it up to move it while taking off the intake...

be curious what you find, been having some issues myself.

tequilaiam - question for you on the exhaust and intake bolts as those are the alst things i need to get before i install my turbo. What did you do for replacement hardware? Did you replace the hardware with identical hardware or just replace with bolts/studs? Also, are y'all using any sort...

This post saved me this weekend. Blew the fusible link going from the 24 terminal bar to the starter relay under the dash. Once i figured out it was the link, i got it replaced and good as new. THanks!

What's the point of tube doors? Not knocking, just curious why people choose to put them on.
