John Ledbrook – Ford Anglia Cosworth Turbo

Renowned Hill Climb competitor from the island of Guernsey, John Ledbrook, came to AET with a TB3403 turbo in need of an overhaul. The unit was leaking considerable amounts of oil past the turbine end seal within the bearing housing. There was also wear and scoring to the shaft wheel and to the bearing pack. Thankfully, the unit was able to be swiftly repaired by our team and it was back in Guernsey with John just 7 days after it arrived at AET HQ.
