Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Installing new turbo any sugestions?

[FFL8N]

I just got a new Jammer Turbo from Diesel Dynamics. I will be doing the install myself. Any sugestions or helpful hints for the install would be appreciated.

Make SURE the downpipe will fit right.



My KSB1-B does not even come close to fitting right. Had many many "tweaks" to get it to fit and it still does not quite fit tight to the downpipe.

Once you put the oil return line on make sure to fill it with oil. Then spin it over by hand a few times before you start the truck. Once you start the truck let it idle for about 10minutes or so before the first drive to make sure the new turbo is good and lubricated before it's first test. After the test drive check all the connections to make sure they are good and tight.



Oh and don't forget you may have to clock the turbo to get it to fit just right on the truck.



Good Luck

The B1 are nice with EX4 (HX-40) oulet makes for a easy install

And don't forget to remove the dust plug that's in the return port before you hook the return line up... ... I heard some one did that once. :-laf
