[jstang209]

I recently found out that a waterpump pulley is a rare item or sumthin.. autozone, kragen, and pepboys dont carry them..neone no where to get one fast?? another question i had is if neone noes if the 2.3 waterpump pulley is the same.. my engine came without one so i cant match them up..but my 2.3 has two pulley's on the waterpump.. a big one and a smaller one.. Does neone no if one of them is the same as the 5.0's?? thanks

just about any junk yard will have that for sure. I probably have 20 of those. I'll give you one for every one you find for me that is the single groove pulley.

5.0's won't work. sorry

If you want just the "single" water pump pulley, just drill out the four spot welds and break them apart. It's easy.

um ...... lazy.... and it takes the thrill out of the hunt.

I've seen ONE actual real single pump water pulley on ebay in the time I was looking for one, it was from a Ranger or Bronco II, and I got outbid. dammit.

What kinds of cars did the single groove pullies come on?

 

[Red_LX]

Anything that had a 2.3L with serpentine belts, but no A/C.

I guess I'll have to toss mine on Ebay!

the ranger one is a completely different setup if it were from at least 93 and up.

How much do they usually go for?

the mustang II's should of had the single pulleys if I remember right.
you can use a twin pulley though and just not run the second belt.

Actually the one I lost only went for like $15-16, I just lost it at the last minute.
