Did a little looking at Garretts last night but got tired before I learned anything
Edit: On that note, who recommends a pump rebuild at this stage while my turbo and injectors are being done?
What did you do on your 70 series today? (17 Viewers)

I think the 2lte would be your best option.
Well played sir, well played

Send it to australia. Graeme at gturbo. Or buy a rebuild kit from here and send it to the shop with the reliable parts. Options aplenty here...
Thanks. Sending to Australia, although an option, would be a pretty long wait. Got it covered with driftmotion as recommended by @saltycoconuts. Spoke with the turbo guru there today and was reassured they can handle this no problem. As for supplying the rebuild parts to my local shop, they still wouldn't work on it. Doesn't matter anyway, I'm going to Frankenstein a Cummins R2.8 with a 2LT-E taking the best parts from both and swap out the 13B-T.
Keep us posted on how it works out with Driftmotion. I've got a turbo I need to get R&R'd sooner than later.

Glad you got it sorted m8. Someday mr yota will bring a proper diesel 70 to the states.
I'm not holding my breath. And we get proper diesel 70s, they're just 25+ years old, and brought in by Mr. Jackson (and others).
Thank you so much
Glad you’re going with driftmotion. Good choice. Seeing you’re getting your injectors done I feel the urge to get mine done as well. Maybe next month.
Also when you do your engine swap-mashup you might as well add a quad turbo setup? Because boost is life right?
When I get onto my desktop I can upload the h55 manual as well.

Went to investigate why my window wouldn't wind all the way up. Found this....

I ended up having Tim's Turbos rebuild my CT26.
He had seen them many times before.
No issues getting parts and he supplied me with gaskets/seals for reinstallation.

be very carefull when you put the crane back in. the cut outs in the door panel are razor sharp, the hand lever one is worst. I got nasty cuts on my fingers few days ago doeing this.
I finally got round to fitting a passenger seat belt, originally had the adjustable 3 point belts but found a set of 2010 (apparently) belts in the junkyard for a good price, fitted some 5 watt number plate bulbs and the carb on my coffee table has been reassembled.
I fixed mine a few times.... I got a spare piece of the teeth from a manual window , cut the damaged section out and welded in the new one,
The second time i made wee blobs of stainless tig weld , then re cut the teeth with a 1mm angle grinder blade..... way easyer than you would expect if you lay off the coffee before getting stuck in with the welder
