ASSEMBLY

(1) If the water pump inlet cover needs to be
installed on the water pump:
(a) First apply Mopar
equivalent to a NEW water pump O-ring seal.
(b) Place the O-ring seal in the housing groove
where the cover contacts the housing.
(c) Install the seven fasteners around the perim-
eter of the pump. Tighten them to 12 N·m (105 in.
lbs.) torque.
(2) If a pulley needs to be installed on the power
steering pump, (Refer to 19 - STEERING/PUMP -
ASSEMBLY).
(3) Place the water pump assembly onto the power
steering pump shaft.
(4) Rotate the water pump so the water pump out-
let is near the water pump upper mounting holes
(hole with dowel guide). Arrange the three pump fas-
tener holes so they line up.
(5) If the water pump impeller hex has not been
accessed with a socket, use the following steps to
access the water pump impeller hex.
(a) Place a ⁄ inch drive 10 mm socket in

longer) in through the heater hose fitting into the
rear of the 10 mm socket.
(c) Push the socket with the extension into the
pump placing the socket on the hex built into the
center of the water pump impeller.
(6) While holding the power steering pump shaft
from turning using a hex wrench in the pulley end of
the shaft, tighten the water pump impeller rotating
the ⁄ inch drive extension clockwise using a ratchet.

This will draw the water pump in toward the power
steering pump. Tighten the impeller to 26 N·m (19 ft.
lbs.) torque.
(7) Remove the 10 mm socket,
and ratchet from the water pump. Remove the hex
wrench.
(8) Align the three pump fastener holes and install
the three hex drive bolts with washers (Fig. 27).
Tighten the bolts to 26 N·m (19 ft. lbs.) torque.
