Would this fit a 96 F350

Just wondering if this would also work on my truck, Thanks

No, but they do have them for pre 99.5 psd's. I think they are a bit more expensive though. Let me see if I can find one for ya.

How hard is it to put one in

[vitalidle]

I think I might be wrong on that! I see they have them for the early 99's and then for the 99.5's-2003's

Not sure I am doing it this weekend if my cards fall into place. I will give some feedback when I finish. So the OBS trucks have an ebpv?

[squeeks]

They sure do have ebpvs on obs trucks and i unplugged mine, but im looking at rebuilding my turbo and i figured while i was at it why not take the ebpv outa it. I think i am going to use just a couple frost plugs for the holes in the exhaust manifold, but i would like to get rid of my leaky actuator.

[vitalidle]

I know some people pull the actuator arm out and then tap and plug the hole.

[squeeks]

I think just plugging the actuator is a smarter idea than replacing the whole thing, it would be at least 100 bucks for a new pedistal and 75 cents for a plug.

[vitalidle]

Yeah its alot cheaper for sure. They recommend you pull the guts out cut the actuator arm off plug it and then put the piston back in the pedestal and keep it unplugged. If you don't the oil will be diverted right back to the oil pan before it gets to the turbo.

The solenoid unplugged electically.
