Hi,

After replacing the seal on the nose cone shaft a few times now with oil still leaking, I believe my nose cone shaft on my 1st Gen supercharger is scored or damaged enough to not seal or is damaging the seal somehow.

I'm looking for a used shaft in good shape or just a nose cone to use for parts. Hit me up if you've got one or any info on getting parts somewhere.

Thanks!
Nic

 

I understand magnuson makes the sc.
Gadget at URD is a good source for info.

 

At one time, Magnuson made the housing for TRD, but the blower is just an Eaton M62. I will see if Magnuson also made the snout/nose cone, but there's not much support from them or TRD anymore, so I'm hoping to reach out here for used parts. Thanks though!

 

I remember a thread about a sc rebuild and the company that does on YT.
Again URD will have info if nobody chimes in here.

 

I have that S/C on my '99 4Runner. I had it rebuilt by Magnuson in 2010 with 163K on it. I think the bill was around $1200 plus round trip shipping, $200 or thereabout. It now has over 220K on it and I guess it needs an oil change at the very least? I'm not certain that it needed rebuilding but I didn't want to chance having it blow up and self destruct. I've read a little and keep an ear out for changes in the noise level and that's about it. I could never really find a good answer on service interval.

I found the following EBay link to some s/c experts in Missouri. Well, it sounds like they know what they're doing. I may contact them in the near future.

Wow! Great link. I've been trolling ebay but doing so searching "TRD Supercharger". Thanks for the heads up as Magnuson is not responding to my emails. Please keep us posted on what your experience is with these guys.

 

Magnuson did a piss poor job when rebuilding nosecones.
