Oil feed line

[matuva]

Good day all,

anybody knows the part# for the oil feed line to the turbo on a 6.5?

Or at least, if you built a custom one, can you share the list of part you need for? I saw nice oil connectors, but I don't know what are the size of threads (metric or not) and so and so...

Thanks in advance...

IMO The fittings are common JIC fittings You can have a line made up at any decent hydr shop

This is something which doesn't exist here... for the price of the oil line, I would wonder if they want to sell me a whole turbo....:nonod:

Thanks Simon

I had the project to build one using such connectors :http://www.ebay.com/itm/8-An-Straig...rts&hash=item4d087d487d&vxp=mtr#ht_1196wt_892
and lines like : http://www.ebay.com/itm/6-AN-Braide...rts&hash=item4cebed2bd0&vxp=mtr#ht_1372wt_892

but I have no idea of what means 6 or 8 AN, and which size of hose to select...

well jeez, what do they have there on that island then.There's got to be some outfit there that can put a hydr hose together,yacht/Shipyard maybe or a commercial truck shop.I take it there's no farm equipment shop or dealer either there?
A foot or so 1/4" hydr hose and 2 hose ends $20 tops.
I can give you one of my spares but the freight alone is gonna be more.

That's a kind proposal. I can PM you my address, so you can check for shipping.

Just to give you an idea: several years ago, when I still had my former pickup, I asked for a quote fo 2 hoses to relocate my oil filter. I wanted well made hoses : $ 240 for both lines.
My mechanics had to to have them building him 2 lines for the oil radiator : $ 480 :errr:

Sounds to me like you might have an opportunity to make some after hours money starting a service there. You cant be the only person in need of supplies...

Maybe leroydiesel.com can help.

He sells oil cooler lines, maybe he can make a turbo oil line as well.

The freight for that PMD i send you a couple years ago was allready over $40.
I had an hydr hose made up for me the other day. 3/8" 4000 psi 2' long + the hose ends...$12.
