I have a 60 Apache and need a slightly longer water pump shaft to line up accessory pulleys. Did they make a water pump with a longer shaft in earlier years? Thanks
The long shaft pump started in 55 and went till 62 and to my knowledge are all the same unless their was a special application for big trucks. If you have a double pulley balancer the groove nearest the block should line up with a standard pump pulley and generator. If these do not line up you may to make sure the balancer is all the way on the crank and you have the correct pulleys for the pump and generator.
If you got the original 1960 235 water pump, it's as long as they ever got...
My original fan pulley of my 1962 261 had two additional pulleys, but they were added behind the main one. I had to cut them off and shorten the shaft to fit into the 48.
