Sure looks like it. CCKen's right, though. RockAuto's mobile version isn't even that bad :P

I just checked the fuel pump on Rock Auto, and I agree. Thanks, guys. I bought a shelving unit today so I can finally clean up and get organized. I'll go ahead and mark it as '97-01 XJ 2.5L/4.0L applications. Summit Racing agrees.

Ran every number I could find on the pump itself, and none of then returned anything

Post it up homeslice, maybe someone can tell you what it originally is. I can check numbers on mine.

are water streaks inside the windshield normal or a sign that the seal is going bad? I noticed them due to my window fogging up, so i cleaned it and now 2-3 weeks later it's full of vertical streaks again. they go from top to bottom but i never see it leaking when driving, even in heavy rain.

Default Head gasket?

My jeep runs great, but my new radiator is bubbling and sprays out of the cap after driving for a while, also have some smoke on start up which looks like coolant. Other than a crack in the block/head it's likely a head gasket right?

I don't mind changing it, just wanted to check if there was anything else that could cause these symptoms before I started buying testers and gaskets. (I've bought some trucks that needed "head gaskets" and just had to change the intake gasket.)

here's one...

on my new tie rod i'm worried that i didn't check the box well enough before i threw it away. I think I'm missing a boot/castle nut/kotter pin on the passenger end of the tie rod.

can you guys confirm i'll need a boot/nut/pin for that end? and bonus points for a link to buy?

never used them myself but check out this link

if you ordered through rockauto (probably any other website have similar policies) you could try to report a problem on your order and specify a boot was missing, they'll probably send you a new one (they did for me when a brake hose missed the copper gaskets, no questions asked)

Thanks. they were ordered through amazon actually. this link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

interestingly there's no boot pictured in what comes with the rod...

You sure it was even there. I ordered a new track bar from Napa. The NCP line one not the cheaper PCC line. My first one came through missing the boot. Thinking that it is not something that should fall off and be in the box.

I'm not sure, I just emailed Moog

the part that i think is missing a boot is the bit that goes into the center of the drag link. perhaps someone here knows if that connection requires a boot or not?
