<DIV>Michael,</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>When I purchased my 1966 BJ8 it came with an extra water pump that I
was told was an original pump that had been rebuilt, I assume your
rebuild kits are for an original pump but I am not sure how to tell an
original 1966 BJ8 pump. The extra pump I have is cast iron but does not
have the opening that shows the copper wire bearing retainer. The only
number on the pump is by the outlet and is 170836. Any help identifying
an original would be appreciated. Thanks for your time !!</DIV>

but as I recall although the bearing shaft is the same length and diameter
and the OD of the outer is the same the overall length of the outer is
shorter and the races are closer together. I have a box of them somewhere
back in Canada.<BR>I think that is the bearing that has been used in the

in an original BJ7/8 pump but it is not designed for that application
and the loads on the bearings would be substantially increased as a result
of the races being closer together.<BR><BR></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>I understand that most of the Brits of the era shared some
parts with tractors, Triumph especially. For that reason it's possible
to cross reference water pump repair kits in some instances and source
them from Tractor Supply stores. It would be interesting to know if this
is true for the Austin 4s and 6s.<BR><BR>Bill Lawrence<BR><BR>
