Default help!!!!

ok i think my water pump went out tonight. When i left work there was a puddle under my truck. I made it home but the truck ran really crappy and noisy. I got under and looked and i had a steady drip from the lowest hose but it was just running onto itand down it. Im fairly certain its the water pump. anyone replaced theirs lately? its on the front above the crank pulley correct>?

Yep its right above the crank pulley. Fair warning its a serious PITA to do yourself. You need a special too to remove the fan clutch. They felt the need to hide a 4" bypass hose under the a/c & ps bracket. MIght just wanna have a shop do it for ya.
