2020 Defender 6x6 overheating due to coolant not circulating. Figured it was an air pocket in the system but it turns out the water pump drive gears are stripped.

Thanks. Elektric off-road. Easy install but had to relocate backup camera on the hd11. It's actually made for hd10.

Do you have a photo? I still remember when most trucks in my town had hunting rifles mounted to the rear window. Those were the days!
