Hi my name is\*\*\*\*\* will be assisting you today. The system will offer a phone call but please disregard. So 60,000 miles for a water pump isn’t bad but it should last longer. What brand is the pump?

Howdy! My '89 Toyota SR 5 truck (3.0L, 5-speed manual 4WD w A/C) needs a water pump. Last one lasted 60,000 miles. Is this too short alife for a replacement? How much should I expect to spend for local mechanic (La Mesa CA) to replace it? Thank you! Mechanic's Assistant: Okay, I'll connect you to the Mechanic to discuss this further with you. Before I do, is there anything else you want him to know? The truck never overheated.
