Anybody have the part number for a 1996 4.0L power steering high-pressure hose? (The upper hose, not the lower/return hose.) I'm also having trouble finding a place to buy one from. The idiot AutoZone nearby claims they can't order one. Napa said they had one, then said they didn't...

THIS IS A 2WD JEEP XJ - stock (sort of) - no lift, no suspension mods at all - 29.5" tires (235 series) I have a clunk noise that is very specific & apparently NOT the trackbar. I worked with some folks at jeepforum.com, & it appears that this type of brake pad wear is the chief symptom of the...
