The water pump on my 82 fj60 went out last week and I have noticed while looking for a replacement Toyota has discontinued the part. Anyone have leads on a good quality replacement with oil cooler and fan clutch?
 
Cruiser Outfitters shows this Aisin water pump as discontinued (their part#

Amazon shows part WPT-028 as the right part, but doesn’t ship for 2-3 weeks?

Anyone have this part in stock for shipping now? I’m in the same boat as OP with an early 84 fj60.

You won’t receive it from Amazon. Your order will get canceled.

I have GMB brand (made in Japan, high quality) replacement pumps in stock and can ship tomorrow. I don’t have them on my site yet. PM me your info and I can get you a quote

@cruisermatt sent me a PM & unfortunately he has NO water pumps for a 2f engine.

Does anyone have a source for a water pump for 8/85 2f that has a fan clutch & a oil cooler?

No, but. If you can find a waterpump for a direct-drive fan you can just swap the front flange. I have to swap that flange every time I get a new waterpump because I don't have a fan clutch. City Racer still lists a waterpump with an oilcooler/without a fanclutch.
Alternatively, there's been more & more talk of people having to get their old waterpump rebuilt.

Very interesting. I have found the Aisin WTP 020 is available in many places; Rock auto, Amayama, and others.
 
Ok, here’s what I ended up doing.

Got the NPW water pump from CruiserOutfitters. They have the one that is actually made in Japan that is for our 2f that has a fan clutch and oil cooler.

@Spike Strip found a NPW pump on Amazon for quite a bit cheaper than the NPW from CruiserOutfitters but just to be sure it was actually from Japan etc etc, I went with the one from CruiserOutfitters.

Thanks @Spike Strip & everyone else.🎯

Have you installed a WTP-020? I think the Aisin P/N that has the right fan clutch flange is the WPT-028 from my research. The WTP-020 likes it has the direct drive flange/shaft. I don't have "hands on" knowledge, but just from researching and looking at way too many pictures. If you are correct I am even more confused now.

I never thought of switching the flange, I though the shaft was shorter for the fan clutch unit. How do you swap them? Is it pressed on?

I do not have the hands on knowledge of this specific direct drive water pump. I was commenting on what @Pighead had said about switching out the direct drive flange to the clutch flange, as he has had to do the opposite for his water pumps. I found what appears to be available direct drive water pumps.

They're just a simple pull off/ press on flange, two-jaw puller works. Put the waterpump in the freezer and warm up the flange and it slides right on...

According to the 2F repair manual there is no difference in pump besides the direct drive and clutch flange.

There is even a spec for pressing the preferred flange onto the pump.

So I purchased an Aisin WTP020 as a back up on the shelf.
 
The direct drive type water pump versus the fan clutch type use different bearings. I haven't verified this but I've been told because the fan clutch type WP obviously has more rotating mass to handle, it has a correspondingly larger bearing.

So will adding a fan clutch to the water pump that's not designed for it cause wear or longevity issues? I have no idea. But it's a reasonable possibility.
