What is this and why is oil leaking from it?
So I was under my jeep looking at some things suspension related and noticed oil on my front diff and track bar. Looks like it's coming from this thing. Forgive my ignorance, I have no idea what it is.
Please help me fellow Jeepers!

Thanks for the replies!
I called Chrysler the other day to see if my Jeep still had any warranty left, bought it used. It doesn't but they told me about a transmission cooler line recall. Is this it?
How difficult was that to fix? Expensive? Sometimes the headache of going to the dealer and dropping my Jeep off isn't worth it if I can fix it myself for a reasonable price.
