Re: Water pump
My simple explaination. If the pump is original the shaft and impeller should slip right out of the housing by hand. The front roller bearing will slip right out by hand also . A long enough metal rod or an extension like used with sockets can be be used as a driver and hit with a hammer to drive out the rear bushing. I use the old water pump shaft and impeller inserted through the rear of the new bushing and a hammer to carefully drive the new bushing in to place . attention needs to be payed to the alignment of the hole in the rear bushing with the hole in the rear of the housing that must align with the rear grease fitting. Its really just a common sense procedure that the common man can do with common tools .
