Review on ๐Ÿ’ฆ Gates 42293 Water Pump: Reliable Performance and Exceptional Durability by John Benjamin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fit perfectly on Jeep GC LTD 4.0L 2002 MY.

It seems like a good pump. As another reviewer noted, the pulley doesn't use OEM sized bolts, so you'll need the ones provided. Also: Do yourself a favor and buy a Fel-Pro pad instead of the pad that came with it. It's not that the gasket that comes with it is bad. I used it on my other car with an adhesive pad. But the Fel-Pro I bought required NO sealant, making my job easier and less messy. If you don't care, you can use the spacer provided. Also: you may want to replace the return pipe [not included] which should already have thread sealant on it (applied by Dorman at least).

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • The presence of an upgrade
