Mech waterpump delete

[RavengerSRT10]

Hi guys and girls, has anyone deleted the mech water pump yet and installed an electric one?
I have a new Davis Craig pump and fans I’m going to install. (Manly due to being in NZ and core exchanges are a big pain in the arse)
Any tips tricks would be appreciated!

I have never heard about this being done on the trucks … Hmmm interesting and how does it hook up and operate ?

Since the 10’s have a hydraulic fan connected to the power steering , how will you bypass the hydraulics ?

I’m guessing either cap off, worst case is loop the the line (disconnect the fan and join the P and T lines)

The pump is installed on the low radiator hose, temp sensor on the hot side. That side of things is simple. It has a controller that’s easy to set what parameters you want.
Question is do I remove the waterpump pulley… or just the impeller and use as an idler. It looks like I’ll loose to much crank pulley contact if I remove and blank off. I had no idea the fans were hydraulic until I spaced this out..
