Any recommendations on a good water pump I can buy. Something that will last & I won't have problems with.

Thanks
 






I'd suggest getting a Motorcraft one from Ford or FPN or something. The original pump in my X lasted 150,000 mi, and would have probably lasted a lot longer if I hadn't mistakenly replaced it before figuring out the problem was actually just a stuck thermostat. :( The GMB ones seem ok, but sometimes the bearings on those seem to go just from the belt tension on the pulley. My next pump will be a Motorcraft unless I find some great heavy duty one with a lifetime warranty or something.
 












OEM it is then. I ordered from my local dealer. Since FPN charges tax where I live it was cheaper to get locally.

Thanks
