Shopping for a Power Steering Pump for an '05 4.0 and I'm finding some conflicting application data:

Obviously, the OE Mopar in NLA :(

PSC lists 97-06 4.0 (with reservoir and pulley)

** Lares 12720 (new) list application as 97-03 4.0 per the Lares website and RockAuto

AAE 7140N (New, rockauto) also 97-06

EDELMANN 6129R (new) listed for 04-06 only.

Is there a difference in PS pumps for the 04-06 4.0 TJ?

Truck is completely stock, but will probably go 33's / lift later this year.

Cheers for any insight on this (y)

If the OE were available, I'd buy it.

Even more confusing, the Mopar site lists the last supersession RL087871AE for this pump as fitting 97-2006 4.0L ...

So the question remains: What, if any, difference is there in these power steering pump over 97-2006 ?
None that I've ever noticed. If you want any good used take-offs with some 60,000 miles, get in touch, I have several. The only difference I'm aware of is the pressure line for the 4 cylinder pumps has a pressure sensor/port in it to kick up the idle.
