Yes, definitely. If the bearing goes bad in the water pump, you'll lose the timing belt. I highly recommend going with OEM on this part, as I had a GMB aftermarket pump eat itself within 20K miles. Luckily my low coolant light came on before the bearing completely disintegrated and threw off the belt. OEM is worth the extra cost for this part in my opinion. I'd rather spend an extra $40 to not have to spend a couple grand.
