It's the transmission stopper / dipstick plug installed on the assembly line.

We have a winner!!

Anyone who has dropped their transmission pan and found that little yellow plug floating in the trans fluid knows the heartache involved with seeing that thing,
and NOT knowing where it came from!!

:confused: .... :sweat:

That's the best kind of collectors item, a useless part that everybody throws away. Only valuable to the die-hard Marauder collector who knows what it is.

That's a keeper!

Ha, Ha .... it is the Lollipop found in the oil pan when you drop the pan the first time. It is pushed out into the pan when the dipstick is inserted. If you find it, then the oil pan hasn’t been dropped since production. LOL

It is the flap just in front of the wheels that allows you access to the back of the foglights for changing a bulb.
I removed this one when I installed my remote mount oil filter in the location that the flap once resided.

You can have the flap if you want it!

One of the sides didn't have one of those. At least the 2003s. did they add that? I remember someone showing the gap to Steve Babcock and him going "huh, that is odd"

You’re thinking of the forward wheel well splash panel , I think the passenger side has it but the driver side doesn’t.

My filter is there now too. Also in there is my air compressor mounted upside down, my 3 1/2” intercooler piping, and a 50mm Tial. That area is definitely full! [emoji6]
