Will the newer style power steering pumps fit on Renix XJs? I would like to use a much newer one from like an '01 since there are several in the junkyards here. I've heard both ways that they all will interchange between 87-01 and that they won't. Does anyone know for sure? Help is much appreciated.

So what just grab both the hoses that go to the box as well? What year did you put on?

The steering pump has a different mount from the Renix to the HO engines- not sure if the pump itself is any different- the hoses have a different style seal in them as well.

Can anyone else elaborate?

Either way you go think about getting new hoses. They are not expensive and a blown hose could ruin your day.
