Detailed Description

Fel-Pro 35982 is an engine water pump gasket designed for vehicles that require a precise seal between the water pump and engine housing. Fel-Pro focuses on sealing systems that match the application, helping maintain coolant containment under normal operating conditions. This gasket is a practical choice for service on Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, Dodge Challenger, Jeep Grand Cherokee, and Ram 1500 models, along with other listed fitments.

This part cross-references MAHLE K32579 and Mopar 68078554AD for the same application. If you are replacing a leaking water pump gasket on a 2011-2023 Chrysler 300 or a 2011-2023 Dodge Charger, Fel-Pro 35982 provides the correct sealing profile for the listed engines and mounting pattern.

What It Helps Address

• Coolant seepage at the water pump mounting surface
• Loss of seal after water pump service
• Coolant residue around the pump-to-engine joint
• Repeat leaks caused by worn or damaged gasket material
• Improper sealing from a mismatched replacement gasket

Installation Notes and Tips

Clean both sealing surfaces thoroughly before installation and remove all old gasket material, corrosion, and coolant residue. Verify the water pump and engine surfaces are flat and free of damage, then align the gasket carefully with the 12-hole mounting pattern before tightening fasteners to the vehicle manufacturer’s specification. Confirm the part number and fitment against the exact year, make, and model before service.
