It's all fun and games until a fish bites your nuts.

What does the underside of the Jeep look like where that cover is?

Glad somebody knew cause I didn't have a clue.
If it was in the back seat I would have a said a tie down for cuffing somebody.
With a question mark instead of a period. LOL.

Could it have been an anchor for a braking system when towing the car behind an RV?
