Was looking over my LX450 last night because I’m putting an ARB bumper on, and I noticed this thing. Couldn’t figure out what it is or what it’s for.
What is this thing?

It almost looks like somebody mounted a diff breather there and then shielded it. Or maybe there was something in my coffee....
Interesting

If I were to chase it, it’d obviously lead to the front diff? I’ll try and trace it when I get home.
Honestly man, I have no clue what it is. I was just spitballing. But yeah, trace that wire/hose coming from it and see where it goes. That'll give you a better idea.
I've also heard it was for the auto climate control

Will do! My brother has a 96 fzj as well, and he couldn’t seem to find that on his. (His whole front end is in pieces)
Well, I don't know what year your truck is but I just checked my '97 and I don't think I have that contraption. But my truck isn't totally stock so 
Didn't see this til just now. So you have a '96?
FWIW, I don't have auto A/C so maybe it is for that system after all.

Figures. You LX boys with all your fancy frills and gadgetry haha 
Rite aid has drug tests for like 25 dorras...
Yes, it's auto climate control sensor for exterior weather.
The 40th anniv. edition LC's get them as well as the LX's, all with the auto AC stuff.

I've been looking at mine for a while thinking how it's a bit of an eye-sore along with the A/C receiver dryer.
Slee makes a skid plate for the ac dryer, it fits into a arb bullbar with winch.
