Good evening,

I have been hearing a grinding + high pitched sound from the engine compartment, and now I have a leak from the front of the water pump. Has anyone tried the Needswings SRT6 water pump they have listed on their website? Does it have all the right size holes, threading, etc? Somewhere I read that the pulley kit won't fit on the Cardone water pump. Water Pump .

Assuming Needswings is 100% identical to the OEM and requires no modifications to fit the pulley kit, what else justifies the $300 difference vs the Cardone one available at parts geek (55-83333)? | Partsgeek.com

Thanks!
