Default Power steering reservoir

Its a 2000 XJ. I broke the elbow for the return hose on the back of my PS reservoir. I repaired it with JB weld but am still worried it might break off again in the future. I cant find one at a parts store or online for a 2000 xj, just up to '96. Anyone know what other year will fit a 2000 xj steering pump?

Are there any pick-n-pull junkyards nearby? Should be able to snag one very reasonable.

i've had jb quick on mine for about 8 years.
i'm not worried about it breaking off. if it does, i'll use more jb quick.

i've even used it on my fuel pump elbow. it's been on there for at least 5 years.

i don't think you need to worry...

Cool. Yeah jb is pretty good stuff. Before I used jb on the elbow, I had nothing else to use but super glue with black silicone, even then it didnt leak or fall off.

JB Weld, the thinking man's alternative to baling wire and duct tape!

Yeah, my daughter's car has a small weeping crack in the plastic radiator (Chevy) just below the filler neck. I recommended cleaning thoroughly and... yep, JB Weld. It can't hurt, and it might save her radiator.
