Re: Anyone ever rebuild a water pump?

The water pump is one of the parts that you really don't want to fail while on the road as they can be the biggest pain in the butt to change, and your local parts store isn't going to have one laying around. Pay the money and have it professionally rebuilt. Thats a small price to pay for peace of mind. I bought a rebuilt unit from Kanters. But by the time I paid the shipping for the actual pump from Kanters, and the shipping of the core back to them it was close to $200. Find a place (like Gould) where you can just ship yours to them and have it sent back rebuilt for a flat rate.
