With the engine out of the way you can easily locate this lil fella and give him a new home. It seems JEEP/AMC factory installs one on every vehicle.

Thank god the original designer/artist gave him pants.

You might consider checking the xfer case chain/belt and the plastic tips on the shift forks!
When they wear out, your xfer case will jump out of 4x4 and or low / high range.

Couldn't hurt and parts are cheep, getting the stuff on and off the Jeep is the pain!

While mine was out, I painted the engine bay with rattle can bed liner. If you're bored. Motor mounts are a good idea. Check breather hoses on axle and trans. Good time to swap to a Durango steering box with all the room. And/or box brace. Just a few things..
