just got an email on the 2 pumps i ordered... they are shipping one, the other is out of stock, the one that I assume is the one I need. Now ill have 4 new water pumps all the wron hub height. Anyone know where I can get the 40mm water pump with a 2-5/8" hub height? something so simple has me d...

Driving down the road and heard a big thud. Alternator light came on, pulled over popped hood and the whole freaking pulley and hub are gone off my water pump. This was a new water pump from Napa but we changed the hub out for the old one because it lined up better. Now I'm looking for the hub and p...
