Title: what's the best brand of aftermarket water pump?
Post by: dectar99 on November 27, 2011, 05:40:38 PM
Looking to change the timing belt on my 98 4door 126,000 & after reading some post thought I would change the water pump at the same time I don't think ether has been changed, because if the old owner got the same $700.00 price that was posted, I don't think he would have spent that much, on the car.    Have seen several pumps on ebay & I am sure some of the knock offs don't fit right, so what brand should I get.
  I know that the Gates belt is the way to go... but water pump????

Also does anyone know were to get the outside R & L door molded belt Weatherstrip Seal

I don't know of any difference in quality of any of the various brands of water pumps.  I have seen or used several different brands and they all seem to work and fit as they are supposed to.
