flathead water pump failure
I drove my truck to the local cruise in last night, when I got there coolant was leaking from the right pump. These are the modern type pumps i got from speedway or someplace. They are 3-4 years old and have maybe 10-15k miles on them max.
What is the normal life expectancy of these pumps? Can they be rebuilt? Or are they a throw away item like everything else these days.
Anyone else running them?
Seems they should last longer than that....

Are they aluminum bodied? Sound like Speedway's. Can you post a picture?
No way should they only last that long. I don't know if they use common enough parts to be rebuilt, but you might talk to Skip Haney.
