ok i called gpopshop and they have one made to fit the td04h specs for 175. but i figure i might as well just get another turbo and spend a bit more. what do you guys think. the reason im looking is my shaft has a groove built up on the exhaust side were the bearing rides. its deep enough were there is play. or is it supposed to be that way?

Are you sure it's not just worn out bearings?

brand new bearings. i noticed it when i put on my new bearings when i did my rebuild in january.

Bum deal. I'd see what you could do about finding a used shaft. Or upgrade turbo and downpipe for something better.

You need the fitting for the pan a fitting at the turbo. The pan takes a 1/2 NPT barb fitting you can get at any hydraulic shop and most autoparts stores. The high temp silicone line cost me $6 at the local shop for 2 feet of it. The fitting for the turbo can be a barb as well, it just depends on if you use an adapter or however you have your drain setup.
You'll need the drill and tap for the pan to install the fitting there. Someone might let you borrow one if you show interest in it. Look at the FAQ for pictures of what exactly you need.

I ripped the sh|t outta my compressor wheel due to a bearing failure. I can disassamble and see if the shaft is in correct condition. I'd be happy to pass it on to you.
