Double Pulley Flathead V8 Water Pumps
Hi all,
Could anyone kindly advise me where I could possibly purchase a double pulley truck water pump (flathead v8) for my Ford F60 CMP LAAT ? One of my pumps has failed, I have tried to re build it with the correct kit but it has since failed again, and so now looking for a complete new pump. Preferably new ... But a reconditioned one will also do 👍🏻 Any pointers will be greatly appreciated...... Kind regards, Mark Towers 1944 F60 CMP LAAT 1942 L60 40mm Bofors Gun (Otis Elivator Co) |
They are a bit far from home, but I know Rod Shaver in Arizona has the T-16 pumps which I believe will interchange.
The rebuild kits for the pumps are available from Mac's for around $30 and as long as you are using a press (hammer will not do) are not terrible to rebuild. However, the seal surface may need to be re-cut if it has pitting. That may fall onto a rebuild shop. I am sure others will be luckier than we were on a pair of pumps about a year and a half back. We had one siezed, so brought both to NAPA to send in for rebuild. They returned a month later along with a bill for over $700. We will not make that mistake again. The difference back in the day was that the double pulley was the heavy duty pump which had a actual shaft bearing while the single pulley pumps only had the bronze bushing. I have to wonder if, with the modern day replacement single pulley heavy duty (bearing shaft) pumps available from various suppliers, a double pulley can be made to fit them. Those pumps are reasonably priced. |
Peter Hommes of the Elalamein collection / Milmarket has them.
You can pick up NOS bearing/spindle assemblies from Dirk Leegwater at LWDparts. Hope that helps :) |
