Water pump bad after shop opens front cover

As is common on these motors and that is why Will has a good supply of them. They crack near the keyway and take out the oil seal that is only replaceable from the front. Not one front cover bolt is touched to replace the seal hence nothing was done to the water pump at all. If anything the front was lifted to replace the seal cuz this job is one that can be done on the side and not need a lift for more serious business.
God Bless, turn a simple issue into a full blown motor change......bent cranks, blown oil pumps.....really ridiculous.
Common issue fellas, half moon key in a shallow square keyway will roll when the truck runs rough, super ****ty design and the fix is to use a square key with the replacement pulley.

Nope, not going to take it back. I'm gonna suck it up, buy the new parts, and do it myself. I only took it to them to save some time and get it done faster than I could do it. I wont be letting them touch my truck again

Only takes one good time......
I merely took mine in for a muffler installation with me supplying the muffler (ordered from RN) and a state inspection. They took all afternoon to do the muffler and the next day ruined all 20 good shiny chrome capped lug nuts using the wrong size socket and an air powered impact gun turned all the way up.
I am extremely careful who touches mine. I do all I possibly can myself.
