jerry1centmi Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Hi fellow Dodge lovers. I posted earlier that I needed a water pump to replace the one that I turned the threads off the LH thread side. At the time I was recovering from knee surgery and could not get to my spare parts. I bought this car about fifty years ago and some spsre parts were thrown in. Last week I was finally able to get to the parts and thank god a water pump was in the box. I need help with as the spare pump has pack nuts are 1 1/4 threads where as the broken one is 1 1/8. The pump measures out the same except it has different part numbers. The impeller on the new pump is keyed at 1/8 where the broken pump is 3/16. Why is there a difference? I will need a new shaft and in the earlier post someone nentioned Roys or Meyers but I don't have their phone nunbers. I would appreciate any help.

nearchoclatetown Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 What do you measure over the hex on these pumps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vergil Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Aside from nearchocolatetown, who is an excellent source, I find that Tom Myers is also a great source (734-856-1207). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nearchoclatetown Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Don't call me names , I have no idea what the answer is.I have to measure a few engines that are already assembled, can't get to the threads. Between my neighbor and me we have a pretty good selection of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
