Aftermarket Water Pump Quality

Hey guys. I know this has been probably discussed before but does anyone have any experience with the water pumps made in India for Farmall 140, 240, 424, etc. gas tractors? This is the water pump that the fan
mounts to, not the one that mounts at the bottom of the motor. Reason I am asking is because Steiner Tractor offers one aftermarket for a little over $100.00, and another place on eBay offers one (they say
made in India) for around $56.00 and Free Shipping....HALF PRICE!!! I know Steiner's is great quality because typically that is all they sell. Not sure where theirs is made though. I also know alot of people
that have rebuilt their old ones. I'm not wanting to do that. I would not argue on the price typically because for the quality Steiner one it is worth it; but I need to purchase 5 water pumps and it is quite
the price difference!!

Has anyone had experience with the India ones and does anyone know if they are the same as Steiner's? I did notice that the Steiner pump has a lip on the hose connection area where the other does not. Just
trying to get the best deal on a water pump since I need to buy 5 of them!
 
You can't always go by the catalog pictures (my opinion), could easily be the wrong picture or a generic picture. I've done a couple myself with a 12 ton HF press and parts from Kellog.
 
I am open to hearing more information about the parts from Kellog and the procedure for rebuilding it if it isn't very hard. Might be cost beneficial in the long run and still have the OEM part. I would just want the rebuild to go well so I have a good quality part.
 
(quoted from post at 04:58:32 10/07/17) Go to his website, Kellog Automotive. The catalogs are all online.

Looked them up. all kinds of parts and they offer a rebuild service. I couldn't figure out how to find thebpaets I need so I will try to give them a call. Looks like you'll need the exact sizes of the parts and I have no idea.
