I have a older D66 turbo from beans that I'm doing the billet wheel upgrade in and can't get the wheel to come off. I have the turbo out off the truck and holding turbine wheel with a rag. I'm turning the wheel counter clockwise and got it to budge just hair and can move it back and forth just a little bit like a rusted bolt. Does the comp wheel come off ccw? I checked the threads and it looks the be a standard righty tighty lefty loosey thread pitch. I don't want to just hammer it off with an impact since many people say it can put micro fractures in the shaft that can lead to failure. How is the turbine wheel held onto the shaft? I want to be sure I don't screw that side of the charger up somehow. Also when I spin the shaft I can see the turbine wheel has a bit runout, It's not much but I can see it plain as day, could I possibly have a bent shaft? End play in the shaft feels good but there is a tight spot I can barely feel sometimes when I spin the shaft by hand. Lots of questions I know but thanks for taking your time to help me out guys!
