Since I don't know what it is, I don't know where to best put this thread. I searched google, did an image search.. no luck. I found it while running a wire from the bed of the truck to the battery. It was between the fuel tank and the plastic guard tank skid plate that comes on the ranger raptor. I have a 2024 Ranger Raptor.

Not sure if this is from my truck or a piece of debris that got kicked up there. From the dirt on it, looks like it's been there a while... at first I thought I may have dislodged it while routing my wire but I no longer think that is the case.

It was toward the center of the truck, next to where the drive shaft is. Could this be some part of that?

That looks like a rubber isolator/anti-chafe spacer from around the fuel tank, not random road debris.

Its shape is designed to clip around a round component/strap or sit between the fuel tank and surrounding shield/bracket, preventing metal/plastic contact, vibration and rubbing. The fact that it was found between the fuel tank and the Raptor’s plastic fuel-tank skid/guard makes that much more likely.

The important part: I wouldn’t throw it away. If it came loose while the wire was being routed, there’s probably a specific spot where it clips back in.

Thanks. I'll take a bore scope and see if I can find where it goes.
