Default anyone with a T34 on a 2wd? (FAO Spadge now!)

Getting pissed off now

I've fitted a T34 to my 3 door but cant find anywhere that does an actuator bracket to suit

at the moment I have cobbled my old T3 one with some spacing brackets but it looks shit and I want a proper one.

Turbo Dynamics dont do them (they could only sell me a bracket that I would have to piss about with and weld to the compressor housing)

people have said they have them but where the fook can I get one from??

any breakers got one lying around they can sell me?

anyone got a pic of theirs? as I might have to make one myself at this rate but I really cant be arsed to do that!

Thats what Im looking for!

my turbo is exactly the same as B19bal's. I assume the actuator bracket on yours is a proper item, not a homemade jobby? I dont suppose you know where it came from do you?

If not get off your lazy, goodfornothing ass and take me some better pics!

Turbo Technics do them , their turbos come with them on when you order them so they must sell seperately !

cool - phone number?
in fact if someone wants to just ring them, order one, pay for it and have it hand delivered to my door that would be nice? (I may even let you fit it too!!)

Spadge, do me a favour and measure that bufty one for me!

it needs to be 82mm between the outer edges of the holes (standard T3 size is 75mm)

top bracket in this pic is T34, bottom is T3:



if its no good I'll ring turbo technics for one.

cheers

i had to mod one last week,same situation as yourself,i ended up using the bracket off a 4x4 model,this has the same hole centres as the T34 compressor housing,you just have to do a little mod to get it to work as the angle is different,but it is very do-able

cheers
