Water pump went bad on me, as soon as it happen i cut off the jeep as it threw the belt off. The and made a really bad grinding noise. Well after getting it towed home. and went to spin the pulley for the water pump and it's like the bearings went and the shaft bent/ twisted a little. Enough so the pulley part that the belt runs on to rub a small grove into the water pump houseing and the for the fins to rub on the other side. Anyone ever had anything clse to this happen. It's the first time for me in all the cars i've ever worked on to see the shaft to like bend. Any thing i should look for before i replace it with the new water pump?
