The tanks are not the same, but you could probably adapt an XJ pickup/pump to the YJ tank without much trouble.

I've done a number of EFI swaps, and gone both in-tank and external with the fuel pump. It has been my experience that external pumps don't live as long as in-tank units, but at the same time I've not had great luck with replacment in-tank pumps. Seems like the factory ones last quite a while, but even OEM replacement units have a much shorter life span?? Again, just my experience... All that said, it's been MUCH easier for me to just run an external pump and keep a spare in the rig just in case. Used it once on my old YJ when it failed up North of Cle Elum. :roll:
