Who can change out a exhaust housing on a T-70-it seems to be stuck, in the ny, nj or pa area.
 
I have the same problem! Mine moves but wont come off! Any advise??? (sorry for hijacking):biggrin:
 
Must be a Q trim!, anyhow PTE told me to hold the compressor housing and hit the exhaust housing with a hammer and it will come off.
I never tried it but sounds like a 2 person operation to me!

Ya, its a GTQ! I tried and its gone nowhere yet!! It spins freely, just wont seperate! Maybe ill just send it to precision!
 
same here-afraid of breaking the turbine wheel. maybe i ll try alittle heat on it while doing the hammer thing.
 
I called precision on a rebuild cost cuz its going on a new engine, I figure ill just let them worry about it:biggrin:
 
I've got them off

When a brass hammer won't do it--I use a press. Support the housing and press on the end of shaft. How do you think the shops get them off?
 
You'd be surprised

How easy they come off, or at least mine did.
All I was doing with the brass hammer was putting dents in the exhaust housing.

Send the turbo back to the manufacturer. I had a siezed housing at one time. If the manufacturer breaks it, it's on them.
