Mine lasted over 30K but any chance of failing is too much a chance for me. I took it off at 30K Pumpless is priceless.

Note for those that relocate:
I think that the relocation was the cause of my pump failure. When it died (at 10,500) I removed it and there was a mark on it which I eventually realized was caused by the swing arm contacting the pump when I hit bumps. I am sure there is a safe way to mount the pump when you relocate, just make sure there is adequate room for compression of the rear shock.
