What's this behind my transfer case?

[Johnnyswell]

Went to change all my fluids the other day but when it came to changing the fluid in my transfer case I realized the drain and fill plug were difficult to get to because of something in the way.

I’m trying to decipher what this component is blocking the drain/fill plugs and looking for some guidance.

I have an 06 LJ Rubicon.

Thanks in advance!

Unplug it and toss it. You don't need it.

Those are the factory locker pumps for your factory lockers inside the axle.

You are welcome. FYI, Lot of people relocate the pumps to the empty ABS tray (near driver side firewall area under the hood) when they install a aftermarket transfer case skid. You can too
