My 03 started sounding like a spun bearing. Then over heat.. so i looked under the hood and noticed the whole engine bay was soaked. Turned off the motor, and heard steam pressure ... Looked at the water pump area, and seen it smoke and dump liquid... Im no mechanic, but am mechanically inclined, so i figured yourube! Dound your vid, perfect! To the point, straight forward, fairly easy... Thanks bro! Saved me $1000 on a shop to do it!!!! Under 100 and done...

On the way home today I noticed my belt was squeaking. I got home and looked under the hood and steam was coming out of the water pump. Watched your video. An hour later. I'm done. Took it for a test drive filled it back up. Thanks. The shop up the street quoted me $875. '03 ram 1500 water pump replacement. Screw all that noise. Thank bud!!!

Thank you so much for making this video! The instructions were easy to follow, and helped me change the water pump on my 2013 Ram in about 3 hours. The truck isn't overheating anymore, and I saved alot of expense from a trip to the mechanic. You rock!

Great instruction! I am a 67 year old gal that will be taking this on. Not my first repair by any means but this video shows exactly what to do! A to B, B to C, C to D. That’s all you need to know! Thanks!

Great video!! Thanks for taking the time to make and post it. It saved me a few hours of fumbling around trying to get it replaced. I fully expected to take out the radiator to get at it.

this was a pretty good refresher i’m replacing the WP on my 04 ram tomorrow. i’d say one particular thing about the 4.7s is that the “proper” way to bleed them is to take out that plug on the block end of the upper radiator hose

Thank for the bare bones video just what I needed i find a big help is to put the bolts as I pull them into the corresponding holes in the new piece it also helps when searching for all the bolts to remove for first timers this is the second pump I've put in this truck just needed a refresher what tools to get ready also when filling the system it helps when burping the system to remove the plug in the hose housing to let air escape thanks again great video

My water pump just went out. So this'll be fun. I guess I gotta buy the pump and those wrenches with the peg.

Absolutely great video. Question, in my 2012 ram my pump pulley is crooked. Making my belt come off. Can I just take the pulley itself off?
@joaquinfrancisco1542 жыл бұрын
Question... Did you put that seal right above pulley because mine there is just 1 open little hole...
@joederochemont62192 жыл бұрын
Thank you for this video. Did you by any chance put thread sealant on the longer bolts. I only ash because in a different video the guy did.

Great video but you have to bleed with the bleeder valve screw on these 4.7 otherwise you'll never get the air pockets out of cooling system I learned the hardway

I have loud metallic noise coming from either AC compressor or the water pump. What’s the easiest way to find out which one is faulty?
