This is how to replace the waterpump on a 2019 Chevy Suburban LT 1500 5.3L L83 engine. This water pump has 120,000 miles and was making a lot of rotational noise and beginning to weep antifreeze (dexcool) out of the front of the water pump housing. Upon inspection, the water pump pulley was also very loose, which meant the front waterpump bearing was the cause of the rotational noise that I was hearing. In this new LS style engine waterpump design, GM makes it VERY EASY to replace the waterpump with basic hand tools.
TOOLS:
You do not need a puller to remove the pulley, just a 10mm socket, 3/8 ratchet, a screwdriver, and a 1/2 inch ratchet for the belt tensioner. In the grand scheme of auto repair, this is a pretty easy repair to do.
