Default Replacement fuel pump choice

1993 XJ
4 litre six cylinder
Hi everyone. Back in July 2015 my 1993 XJ fuel tank sender unit went bad, so while I had it out replacing it I thought I would do the right thing and replace the fuel pump (My Jeep has 200,000 km on it). Ordered a Carter from Rockauto and installed it. Now it was always a little bit noisier than the stock one, but still acceptable. Anyway long story short pump has been getting very noisy, to the point today it has started to stave the engine of fuel, and of coarse it's out of warranty My question is, what make of after market pumps have you guys installed and where did you buy from? I'm in New Zealand so it would have to be from a supplier that ships overseas.
I'd really appropriate any advise you can offer. Thanks.

Use Bosch pumps only. All others have a high failure rate.
