How To Remove & Install A Water Pump On a Dodge Ram 1500 (2009-current?) Engine Cleaning Too!

This video will show you in detail how To remove and install A water pump on a 2010 Dodge Ram 1500. I believe this will work for 2009 to current models as well. I also show in detail you how to clean your engine toward the end of this video. I give torque specs, recommendations, part numbers as well as tips.

This video did not turn out as good as I hoped, and, I do apologize in advance. However, there is a wealth of information throughout.

Torque Specs Below (Just in case you do not want to watch the video)

Belt tensioner mounting—————————————-32 ft lbs

Cooling fan mounting to fan clutch———————-15 ft lbs

Fan clutch mounting (left-hand threads)————-42 ft lbs

Thermostat housing——————————————– 18 ft lbs

Water pump mounting———————————-18 ft lbs

NOTE: I replaced the fan shroud, fan clutch, water pump, thermostat, and fan.

Daniel Garlin says:

So, I have a 2011 4.7l v8 1500. Everything I can find says to turn that nut clockwise, but mine was actually counter clockwise. Any idea why mine was different?

Dude you are good…FYI to everyone go buy a fan clutch tool and never spend another knuckle busting moment removing. I did 3 5.4 3v and was hoping for a break and your instructions nailed it

I was about to pay a local mechanic to change mine (mainly because I am done working on my vehicles nowadays). The cost for labor was quoted at $400 plus parts. After watching your video I decided to do it myself and saved $400 plus the markup of parts. Great video and sorry for the mistakes you made but that is what your video great for us so we don't. My 2014 Ram is back on the road running great again. Thank you

OrDaOs says:

Terence, you The Man! My water pumps about to go out and this video will help tons! I know its been over a yr since you made this video but with that said, hope alls good with your little boy. Thanks again.

Hoo Li Gan says:

Why did you end up replacing the water pump ? Overheating?

L Trane says:

My man, only water pump vid on a 4th gen I’ve seen. Lmk if this would make sense? Driving the Power steering went out, I limped home only a mile out but while omw I shut my AC off & the power steering came back. Popped the hood & water coming out from the area of the water pump but I can’t pin point it. 3-4 days before this happening the belt (I’m assuming) started to squeal. After watching your video I’m pretty confident I can put a new pump in but not sure if that will totally solve my problems. But great Vid and the template idea is spot on
