turbo wear - Diesel Forum

I have a 130k on the clock of a stock 2000 7.3 No problems just beginning my mods.Checked the turbo side play by using a gage pin and there's about .020 by pushing the wheel to the opposite side between the housing and the wheel on the cold side.There's no back and forth movement. Would this be normal wear for the miles I have and what would be a safe assumption when to rebuild this unit? Thanks for your inputs Tom

Yes that is normal with very little wear.
