HOW TO: Water Pump Install ||| 5.7L or 6.4L Hemi

[@pre_ninoshabazz189]

Love the detail in the vid bro. What size sockets are needed for the water pump? And also is idler pulley crankshaft puller socket the same size 16mm as the tensioner

[@ReidPerformance]

You will need a 12, 13, and 15mm

[@BudLite22]

Is it mandatory to remove the top part of the belly pan off? Or can I reach the valve and lower the fan enough with it still on??? I would like to avoid push-pins if able to.

[@ReidPerformance]

@BudLite22 no not mandatory.. but makes everything easier. That valve at bottom of radiator can be a PITA

[@juan_ctzz]

Is this a duralast water pump?! Mine looks the same but mine was defective the pulley kept getting stuck and sounded like trash was inside the pulley.

[@ReidPerformance]

Yes it is

[@kevinmosley2794]

Im thinking of going e85 on my Durango, what exactly is needed?

[@ReidPerformance]

@kevinmosley2794 getting injectors and a tune is all that is needed. 2015+ will require a pcm unlock

[@martavianmims2260]

How did you get the hose off I got the clamp but the hose won’t come off

[@ReidPerformance]

@martavianmims2260 take a pic or small flathead and wedge it between the hose. You have to break the seal.. then you will be able to twist and remove it. Some of them get sealed on pretty good

[@GerardoGonzalez-fj5kd]

I got a 2021 charger rt and my water pump is leaking , what do you recommend getting the same one or getting an upgrade

[@ReidPerformance]

@GetardoGonzlez-fj5kd just keep it oem

[@JakehubJ]

Hey bro my engine is making a ticking sound and started leaking coolant when parked Could it be the water pump? I am located in Fontana if I can email you to send a clip

[@ReidPerformance]

@jakehubj [e-mail]. Leaking coolant is going to be a hose, your water pump, or radiator

[@brandonlimson]

U sure it's 21 ft lbs for proper torque. Ohoh! I did 18

[@ReidPerformance]

@brandonlimson yep… 21 ft/lbs everytime I’ve checked

[@brandonlimson]

@@ReidPerformance well back in there for me. 21ft it is.

[@Kay-4JK]

Just did my water pump on durango 5.7. It's 21ft lb on all the bolts for the water pump

[@ReidPerformance]

@@Kay-4JK thank you!

[@mikemedcheck8475]

You do not need to do anything with the fan

[@ReidPerformance]

I like to for more room

[@inthewaytv1]

No sealant

[@ReidPerformance]

Why would you use sealant on a gasket? Lmao

[@juan_ctzz]

Is this a Duralast water pump?

[@ReidPerformance]

@juan_ctzz yes

[@juan_ctzz]

@@inthewaytv1 ahh had to change mine out again I think something got in mine.

[@ReidPerformance]

@juan_ctzz totally possible!
