Question Water Pump Studs

Tried searching to no avail.


I'm removing my water housing to install one that I've modified and after hammering away at it and prying the **** out of it, I noticed one of the long studs that goes in to the front cover is actually bent.

Does anyone know where to get new ones? I'll yank it and try to find something similar at a hardware store but, if anyone has a part number or a place to order online, I'll just do that.

Thanks for your time.

Call up Ray Crowe at Malloy Mazda and describe to him what you need: 888 533 3400.

P.S. Good luck getting that stud out, they can really fight you sometimes

PB Blast soak + stud removal tool works well.

You can also probably find them used. Hell, I've probably got a few good ones around the garage .

This is the stud removal kit you need -



They go over the studs and remove them without damaging them or the hassle of double-nutting. It's one kick-*** tool. Google "metric stud remover". I found mine at Advanced Auto Parts in town.
