Wow, we seem to have a lot of the same issues... I found the water pump in stock at Advance auto parts, had to order the fan clutch, top radiator hose and thermostat.

Re: My 1975 Travco 270
Can you post the part numbers for the hoses and WP ?\nThe one i found from Advance was made by GMB and had to come directly from the factory.

Re: My 1975 Travco 270
GMB water pump part # 120-1200 was in stock at Advance auto parts.\n\nTop radiator hose is a GATES part # 20907... I trimmed about an inch off the radiator end.\n\nThe bottom hose was an in stock GATES hose also but I can't find the part # now. I took in my old one and matched it up... had to trim about 6" off the new one.\n\nI found the short hose on the top-front of the radiator at a tractor supply store. It was part of a $20 hose kit.

Re: My 1975 Travco 270
Was your old water pump the same flange as that new one ? It kinda looks like mine but my flange is a cross not round.

Re: My 1975 Travco 270
That looks exactly like the pump that came off of mine. The old flange was like that and the new one was round.\n\nI purchased both hoses at O'reillys auto parts. They looked the hose up as a 1977 dodge 1 ton with a 440... the hose was longer than needed but the shape was right.\nThis is the hose I bought... GATES part # 20957\nhttp://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/GAT0/ ... &ppt=C0331

Thanks for that info. I will check them out. The pics look different but pics don't mean anything.\nBeing able to help each other out with valuable parts #s etc is exactly why We started this site.\n

Had a 14ft awning from a Travel Trailer I cut up. It won't fit due to the curve of the roof. Dang...
