Water Pump

Well my water pump blew its bearings today luckily it did it right when i pulled in the driveway. I noticed it was making a clunking noise for a few weeks and I have been trying to put off tearing the front end off the truck to fix it. So I called up my buddy we went to O'reilly's bought a new one for $30.00 plus $27.00 in antifreeze (stuff cost to much). After 4 hours pulling and unbolting the new one is on and the truck is purring like a brand new one.
