Water pump replacement recommendations

[mjtjnj]

Hey all -
I have a 2000 TJ with the 4.0 and the water pump is seeping pretty good. I've done them before, but it's been a while. Does everyone recommend going with Chrysler, since they are still available? They are more than 2x as much as an aftermarket. Has anyone had good luck with a particular aftermarket brand?

Thanks--
Tom

I grabbed this for future use, since the price was right... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FZP1LT4?tag=wranglerorg-20

When mine went I didn't have time to shop around. Went with NAPA and hasn't been a problem. Was several years ago.

No issues with my Napa/Gates water pump.

Lots of issues with store bought thermostats. Get a Robert Shaw from Flowkooler if you're replacing yours.
