360 bearings cross link seals balanced to 90k rpm and sertificate with warranty and you get one free window sticker :)

T-D are not the cheapest with rebuilds or hybrids but there work is top

 

Midlands charge 195+vat for 360* rebuild and i know the uprated seal is only like 30 quid there abouts

Sounds a little cheap that... I found it was around 300 to 450 per side, the 360s and step gaps push up the price a bit.

thats cuze TD and TT's are expensive

 

2 month ago i had a tub rebuilt with 360/seal from midland and it was 195+30+vat ...

My Hybrid Tub inc Manifold last year only cost me 450+vat

One of them is near me isnt it td? did mine myself in the end, as td refuse to balance them if they didnt build them, I used cr who provided the kit and then balanced cant remember how much now. Thats a good orice from midland though mark.

thats what ime thinking too

Because Midland Turbo are shite!-I take it you mean the same place in Notts?

If so save your money Bri............

You can get rebuild kits off the bay,and do em' yourself-Boldy did AFTER midland 'rebuilt'em!!

lol really i havent had a problem with them as yet .. 6th turbo job i have given/had from them

 

but then again i have had Problems with TD ... " anything can go wrong " regardless of who made/repaired/modified it

Correct mate!-I don't mean just on Z's either,they have been around for years and I had bad experiances with turbo's we had done for Bedfords a Leylands (showing my age now!)

Unless they have changed hands???-Seriously Bri,man of your talents can rebuild em'!

Speak to Steve ( Silverline) there's not a lot he doesn't know about tubs lol

I did mine theres not alot to it, easier than building an engine. However I havent dobne many miles yet so can say how long they will last. You need the short bearing kit, il have a look later what the kits cost me. I used genuine garrett parts as ebay kits didnt fill me with faith.

£260 for parts by the look of it inc vat, then it was about £90+vat for them to balance them and clock them and assemble the housings.

What brings you to the turbo failure conclusion anyway?
