No, those glow and spin REALLY fast.

I think o2 sensors only have 2 or 3 wires not 4. I have no idea what it could be.

It plugs into the transfer case right by the speedo cable, but the picture's cutting it out on top. Mine's vacuum controlled on my NP231.

It looks like the vacume switch for the front disconnect. What year is it?

Damn I did not think of that! If its a 90 xj it is the vacume disconnect then. The switch should be on the front above the shifter.
