Re: RV Turbo question
Joe, we run a lot of equipment in our business and most of it is equipped with Cummings. My suggestion is to not rebuild a turbo especially one with age or use. The housings get worn and usually you can buy a new one for not much more than a rebuilt one. Shop around, many times the prices can vary quite a bit and you you can save a lot by making some phone calls. You most likely will need engine serial number when calling it can be found on a tag on the front engine cover. Good luck

Re: RV Turbo question
Joe, we have used some aftermarket stuff but have had better luck with the genuine Cummings parts. Hope this helps.
