Eric,

What are the end-play and radial play specs for one of these journal bearing turbos?

When I replaced my K24 with the RS2 there was a bit of radial play, but I didn't know if I just dodged a bullet or if the play was perfectly fine.

I don't mind used KKK turbos.  I wouldn't buy it unless it passed
end-play and radial play specs.  Yes, they might get run hard, but
they are robust equipment.  Even if the thing were out of specs on
play, that could be factored into the deal.  A rebuild of a turbo
that's shot would yield a good-as-new piece for a fraction of the
cost.
