3 weeks of trial and error though. LOL.
Now we can do fun stuff like swapping the bed from the donor truck. I should get a new fuel pump while we're at it.
I'd say just keep your pump. I don't believe aftermarket pumps are as reliable as you'd think, and you'd run the risk on getting a lemon. Cross that bridge when you get there? From what you describe, pump seems to be good.
My 99 pump is original and has 263k. I don't plan on changing it until it dies. I have always changed the fuel filter though, around 25k. My buddy has a truck just like mine in RCSB '01. Last I asked he was near 375k. I think he's on his 4th pump. He's a parts changer, but still recognizes when it's time to call his mechanic. I'm assuming they were actually all bad? Not sure.
If you have lab scope, you can see the waveform of the commutator from the pump motor, and see what kind of "health" it's in, but I have no idea what DIYer would have a scope, LOL.
Just my opinion. Your call on that one.... of course, by now, probably already have that new pump in the tank?! LOL
