What is this plastic thing on the front shock bolt?

And how do I get it off?

2003 liberty 2.4l 4wd. Trying to get these front shocks and springs replaced. I have all the nuts loosened but this one. I dont want to damage this but cant seem to get it off.

You must be registered for see images attach


It had a rubber hose attached but I cant tell where it goes.

Breather for the front diff
Just pulls up off, and connect the hose back up so you do not forget it
Are you lifting it ?

No, the springs were sagging so I needed to replace them. This is my wife's jeep, will probably never go more off road than some easy trails or gravel forest service roads.

I was worried about breaking it. I put a little more pressure on it and it popped off. Thanks.

springs and shocks both all around I hope, no use just replacing springs, use either Bilstein or OME front shocks, rest are pretty much junk

Rear about the same
