Even though my truck is an '06, it was produced mid 2005, and dealer purchased just a few months later making it an early release of the 2006 MY.
I can assure you there was no bracket when replacing the 2 piece HPOP fitting, as a matter of fact if I recall correctly the "bracket" was FoMoCo's answer to an already leaking STC fitting and never installed from the factory.
