Question 2ND Gen Turbo Rebuild Kit

I have been looking into a rebuild kit for my 87 TII there is about a table spoon or two puddle in front of the intake side of the turbo. Oil is in intercooler up to throttle body. It still pulls gears like a bear but i am a ffraid that I will ruin the turbo. Wondering if I should rebuild now.
So heres where you can help me, I have only found a rebuild kit from turbocity.com they claim its eeeasy.
If you know of another place that you have used please post. Thanks!!

It's just a standard Garrett T04 turbo rebuild kit.&bnsp These are priced between $100-$150 typically.

The key to keeping everything balanced is to mark the shaft, comp wheel, and nut so everything rebalances the same as stock...

Yes.
It's a Garrett T3/T04 rebuild kit for the "carbon" seal for the compressor.
Do NOT get the "dynamic" compressor seal.
