Vacuum bottle under passenger fender
It's a reservoir for your cruise control. That is, if you have cruise. Actually, it should be behind the bumper on the passenger side.

semi-right. it is a vacuum reservoir. think of it as the cap to your entire vacuum system. if you take it out, your heater/ac will default to defrost mode (your blender door is vacuum controlled) and other vacuum operated things on that line will malfunction. better idea to relocate it.

Thanks for the extra info; I didn't realize it also moved the blender door. Maybe that's why my a/c didn't work very well before I fixed the broken line.

no problem. best way to think of it is take a straw, and put your finger on the end while you are trying to suck air. that vacuum that is created is what works a lot of things on your jeep (even the heater valve on mine).
