Any one here installed a new water pump in your evo if so:

How hard is the install?
It seems like the engine need to be droped for installation.

 

Yup done in a couple Evos its not too hard. You don't need to drop the motor. Just support it and take the passenger motor mount out

 

/\ Yup!

Good luck.

when should you replace the water pump?

 

As said above, you just need to support the engine and take the mount out. I did mine a couple months ago with the timing belt and pulleys. It was definitely not as hard as I expected. I'd rather do 5 timing belt and water pump changes than 1 clutch job.

 

It is good practice do just do it when you do your timing belt stuff. >60k miles.

Amen brotha, haha.
