Bradley S. Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 I am having trouble locating a water pump for a 1-1/2 ton truck. Do ya'll have any ides / sources I could try. Roberts doesn't have them, only for 1/2 - 1 ton. Thanks, Brad Quote
Don Coatney Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 What engine is in your truck? Try buying a water pump for your engine size not the truck tonage. No need to go to an antique vendor. NAPA and other good parts houses have them. Quote
Merle Coggins Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 The ton and a half should have the 25" block 236 CID engine. Try looking for a water pump for a Desoto or Chrysler of the same vintage. Napaonline lists a TFW 42554 water pump for a '49 Chrysler Windsor with the 251 CI engine. I believe this would fit. Merle Quote
Bradley S. Posted July 1, 2009 Author Report Posted July 1, 2009 It is a 236 cid engine. Thanks for the help! Brad Quote
Bradley S. Posted July 1, 2009 Author Report Posted July 1, 2009 Thanks for the lead Merle but TFW 42554 is not the same as mine. See picture I took last weekend. I guess the good news is that it still works and seems tight. I'll just throw a coat of paint on it and pretend it's new. The guy at Roberts says he doesn't think these are made anymore, because he can't get them. I am still searching the web. Quote

Arthur Gould has been in business for a while and is well spoken of on the AACA forum. I had a pump rebuilt by him about 8 years ago that is still working well (no noise, no leaks). Quote

There is a difference in the back plate for internal and external by-pass systems. Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) This is the correct Style pump for your 1-1/2 ton dodge truck. These are pic's of the only extra I have I'm saving for a 2-1/2 ton property truck I use around my place. It's a NOS Mopar pump.This is a hard to find pump! The New MoPar complete pump package part # is 1064925 MoPar Rebuild kit #1064921 Bob Edited July 2, 2009 by Dodgeb4ya Quote

I guess one for each bearing. Sounds like Bradley S is in the same position I am: Replacement water pumps are not easily found (1933 and 1934 are different than later because the 1933/34 blocks do not have water distribution tubes). So I have two pumps. One is in the car. The other has been rebuilt and is sitting on the shelf. If/when the one on the car fails it gets swapped with the one on the shelf. Then the failed pump gets rebuilt and put on the shelf. It sounds like the one in Bradley S's truck is working alright for the moment. So leave it in and start looking for either a pump or a rebuildable core... Quote
Reg Evans Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 So....the difference is the longer impeller shaft eh ? Quote

Guess I will continue looking for a backup to my current, still functioning water pump. Thanks to all for the great information. Brad Quote
