04.5 water pump?
I thought it was my a/c failing when there was just some brown crap here and there.
Then this morning I drove my truck to work and it's just dumping what appears to be coolant from the front of the motor... and my best guess is the water pump. it's only at 100k miles.
Is this abnormal?

I found this for you. Not as cheap as you found though.

My 04.5 has 105k and is starting to leak some radiator fluid from the front. I had it checked at the Dodge dealership and they were going to charge me about 750 for an OEM water pump (12 month/12k miles warranty), an antifreeze flush and serpentine belt (plus the labor). I stopped by Autozone and picked up some antifreeze, the belt, the water pump (limited lifetime warranty), and a 190 degree thermostat for $135. I'm not a mechanic, but I'll play one this weekend Wish me luck.

here is a real quick write up i did on replacing the
water pump and thermostat on an 04.5.
its only two bolts and is very easy. remember to
remove the factory airbox for easier reach-in on
the water pump bolts.
