Hello, I changed my water pump, and in the process, the metal tube bent and cracked where the o-ring goes. Can anyone point me to a microfiche parts website where I can order it on line. Thanx.

 

No...but I can tell you the Dorman/Motormite number is 56399. I don't know where you live, but Napa, CarQuest, Pepboys, and even Advance should be able to get this quickly or have it in stock.

 

Thanx, I will go to Napa and check it out.

 

here's an old post that might be of interest:

Posted by 96Ram2500 on Dodgetrucks.org from Northern MN:

" I have researched the heater fitting issue and have found a replacement for
the press in tube with the o-ring. I work at a NAPA and mentioned this in
another thread a couple days ago, but I wanted to get good solid research in.

The water pumps on a early Magnum (92-93) have a threaded heater fitting and
are the same both in height of pulley and mounting pattern. They are also the
correct rotation on the impeller.

Here are some part numbers, whether you have a press on or bolt on pulley:

NAPA part#
58-447- bolt on pulley, threaded heater fitting

58-559-pressed on pulley, threaded heater fitting

I looked both of these pumps up for a 92-93 Dakota with a 318.
Both are rebuilts for about 50-60$.
Just thought I would satisfy some curiousity.

{HankL's note: the 1993-2001 5.2/5.9 Magnum V8s have on the driver's side a
5/8ths slip in fitting with an O-ring that is VERY prone to leaking when
changed. The threaded fitting water pumps above should be considered for less
hassle}
