Lynx II, hull # 4225

Hi Peter,

79-8505 is listed as a 'Housing Water Pump, Right Hand', for the V8 fitted to a 1.5 ton COE chassis with cab over engine cab. The 1944 master parts List shows that this is the part's only application for vehicles supplied to US Forces (it may have other applications). 79-8506 is the 'Housing, Water Pump, Left Hand' for the same application.

The pulley that was fitted to those pumps was the 79-8509B. Again, that was that pulley's only application.

You probably have one of the few V8 water pump housings that was shorter in depth than the usual - maybe look at a couple of pumps from a CMP and see if they are a deeper casting and will line up OK.
