Buy this water pump if you have power steering. The cheaper on will not fit correctly and you will be unhappy. I recommend this one for a few bucks extra and have no headaches

Appears to be a quality pump however upper right bolt hole did not line up properly with original power steering bracket. Had to drill out bracket bolt hole to align properly.
