Can you fit a later model water pump (upgraded) directly to a 2013 TXT 300

Sick and tired of the old type seal failing !!!!!!

 Have you replaced the shaft? The seal should last many years.

Am about to replace the shaft, impellor and seal for the 3rd time in 3 years.

Seals keep failing allowing the coolant to drain into the gear box

Are you using genuine seals, and new shaft every time?

how long does it last before happening again?

yes, using genuine parts.

Seems to last about a year.

So can I fit the post 2015 model pump ??????

Yes the post 2015 water pump is a direct replacement for the earlier 2003 - 2014 units. Fits straight on.

Thanks arnoux

New pump ordered ....

 At that point, 3 in three years means you have some other issue.

You may be getting high pressures in the water system. Can be caused by the Cylinder head o-ring and or radiator vent pipe kinked,
