PMB performance sells them
Yes, you need to use the thick washers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

QUOTE(mgp4591 @ Nov 11 2016, 01:38 AM)  Where did you source them from? I'm planning on the same thing because the elimination of the one sloppy joint really does make all the difference. Pelican also sells them. You need a special tool to remove the old ones but I used the pipe wrench in the picture and it worked fine. Also need a 32mm slim wrench to put on the turbos. I used this one (did have to grind the end down slightly): https://www.amazon.com/ABN-Clutch-Wrench-Re...+Fan+Clutch+Nut QUOTE(mepstein @ Nov 11 2016, 04:23 AM) Definitely - you can tell the threaded studs are a lot longer on the turbos. |
