Best 12v water pump for rear mounted Radiator?

Post by Mosko111 »

Howdy,

We have just mounted a 60 series radiato with twin thermo fans on the back of my ute, And just wondering whats the best tried and tested brand of water pump i should buy to help keep the water circulating?

the hosing will run down behind the cab and pretty much in a straight line along the chasis rails until it has to then bend up towards the engine,

ive heard the Davies craig????? water pump is pretty good quality, what have you guys used?

I thought it was more than another $100. But I have never used one. They are probably better.. But I have had no troubles with the Davies Craig ones.

My Hilux 2.4 turbo diesel with the rear radiator cools just fine with the standard engine driven pump.
Im thinking when I fit up my 6.0L V8 chev though I will run an extra pump just to be sure.
