It looks like a trailer wiring connector to me. Mine has the flat 4 wire connector. It looks like yours has the round 7 wire (I think?) connector instead.

i ordered the replacement part but the guy wasnt 100% sure what it was...wasnt but $3.50 so im just hoping the cover is a part of it.
 
Hey Yahtzee, What year is your rig, and do you have the part# he ordered you?

I have an 04 but dont have the part # handy. Its two 10mm nuts that loosen up but i didnt take it any further until i see what the new part looks like.
 
My guess would that the $3.50 would be just for the little dust flap/cover that folds down over the plug. Looks like thats all thats broke anyway. I'm pretty sure that the plug itself would be considerably more.

Right on... thanks !
 
Yep.. that's the trailer connector. My 06 came with an adaptor to go to the flat connector.

I was looking at it and was surprised by the way it hung low. I'll be sure to relocate it if I ever take the new 06 off road.

i think i may unbolt this part from my LC and tuck it away somehow unless anyone knows if it can be unplugged....i dont tow anything but will be using one of those flat platforms that go into the hitch for carrying coolers/luggage....
