WaterPump End-Play

[Dusty]

Are these collars store bought or do I have to have one made?

I purchased a two peice set collar from Granger, I mounted it on the shaft in front of the packing nut. The two peice was an easy install as you don't have to take anything a part...not my idea as I gleened it form others here.

The water pump shaft is 7/8" dia I think and a two piece collar can be purchased at Ace Hardware for 7/8" shafts...nice thing about a split collar is the pump can say together. But I'm not sure about pushing the collar up into the pulley recess and tightening up the allen screws

skip.

Skip, what kind of water pump do you use that has a 7/8" diameter shaft? Just curious. All the ones that I have rebuilt have 5/8" shafts. I buy my shafts from Brattons. Don/WI
