Water Pump

I neglected to say that I've always used distilled water with antifreeze. The belt was changed when I put the new thermostat in. The fan and clutch were replaced with an electric fan a couple of years ago.I did consider that as a possible problem area. It just didn't seem reasonable that it would be a problem going 75 into a head wind. Changing the pump out on the 4.0 doesn't look to bad or do I have to pull the engine and transmission to get it out? (LOL?) I know this has been covered here before, I"ll do a search before I get started. Oh and the radiator looks spotless inside and out from what I can see and I did clean it this spring.

No, you only have to pull the engine to replace the rear spark plugs.
