If it were me I would avoid these two like the plague. They may offer a lifetime warranty on their stuff, and will honor it too, but you had better like pulling and replacing the item. I should state that this has been my experience, and as such may differ from what is perceived as the "norm".XJXJ said:AZ? Kragen?

. With the Az lifetime warrantee (90 days from stealership) only if they install it.
Bosch is the top of the line.XJXJ said:I was afraid dealer might be the same part. Very helpful, thanks! Know of anything more robust than the Bosch?
They have the cheap one Master something but also have the Bosch although not in stock but they can get it the next day.jfiscus said:I bought mine from AutoZone a year ago, and have had no problems out of it. The fuel pump on an 89 is kinda easy to remove/install since it's on the side of the tank; just a couple fuel lines and the retaining ring to remove, and I think I only paid around $75 for the motor/inline filter/tank filter all together.
They are right you will need to pull your first and see which one you have.JstSurrender said:I'm getting ready to replace mine today, I've got an '88. Any pointers you got for me?
I noticed you said you didn't need to drop the tank, I like the way this sounds. The pump does seem fairly easy to get to...I'm just a newb though...been getting my hands dirty with mine for about a year now, that's it.
Last time( about a year ago) I went to NAPA they asked which pump my Jeep had, they said there was two. Anyone know which two they might have been(I'm going to NAPA this afternoon after work) or how to tell which one I go(other then pulling it and looking)?
Thanks for your help guys
Cottontail said:I just did the swap on my 1990.
When I put the new fliter/pump in, I knocked the filter off while trying to get everything to seat.
I pulled the pump and such out, and fished in the tank for 30 minutess with a hook, trying to find the dang filter, but couldn't.
I had another filter to use, so I figured that the only problem that loose filter could cause was to get caught in the float, and my fuel guage would be inaccurate. Not a huge deal. I can use my trip odometer and just fill up every 200 miles!!!
I don't think there are any connections that it could loosen by just bumping against it.
I didn't want to drop the tank since it was over half full. I'll probably drop the tank and fish it out sometime when the tank is empty.
Anyone see any problem with letting that filter just float around in there?
