Water Pump at 160K miles

[PO-Dan]

OK, that critter is off and I have cleaned it all up. Gonna just buy another one of the metal heater hose pieces. Probably will wait until tomorrow afternoon to put it all back together.

A little late, but I just won a FSm on eBay for it.

Yeah, water pumps are easy. Here we are swapping mine out on the way to the Rubicon. And this turned out to be the LEAST of my problems.

And there's no need to get another one of those metal pipe thingys. Go to the parts store and look in the HELP section. They have a short metal pipe that will thread right into the pump. Then you can just attach a longer heater hose to it with a hose clamp.
