Default turbo and actuator rebuild kit

i have a 2010 dodge ram 2500 6.7 cummins and my turbo actautor just quit!

but i talked to a diesel mechanic and he did bring to my attention that sometimes the actautor gives due to the veins in the turbo getting stuck therefore making it difficult for the actuator to open and close the veins and thus ruining the actautor

so my question is: does anyone know if theres a rebuild kit for the actautor or somewhere i can send the actuator in to be rebuilt and possibly reprogrammed???

im trying save a couple bux lol but seriously just want to save some money

if anyone has any info please let me know

thnx

Don't know, but use the exhaust brake 24/7 and drive it hard when you get it fixed. Gotta knock the carbon out of it constantly.

I put about 40k on my 08 and never had a turbo issue, but of course I may have hit a bump a week after buying it and lost my EGR system.
