Repeated water pump failures

I have a high mileage 2003 ford ranger. 18 months ago the heater nipple on the thermostat housing broke. While replacing the housing I noticed hair line cracking in the radiator fan blades at the hub. I replaced the fan and clutch and roughly 2 weeks later the water pump started leaking. I replaced the pump and it lasted around 2 months. I replaced it 4-5 more time with the same results. I took it to a shop in town and told them what was going on. They checked it over thoroughly and couldn't find any other issue so they put a new pump on. That pump lasted around 3 months as well. The engine doesn't get hot but I don't where to go with this.
