Look at your cold side tube. If it's plastic and clamped directly to the intake elbow and the CAC discharge, then you only need 2 boots for the hot side.

The plastic tube started in late 04' or early 05' and only ran for about a year as the later 6.0L's had metal again. We have the metal tube available as well since trucks with higher miles start having issues with the plastic pipe.

We also have hot side kits as well.

Riffraff Diesel: CAC Intercooler "Hot Side" Kit

Our boots consist of 4-ply Aramid/Kevlar reinforced silicone hoses that are specially made for Riffraff Diesel to withstand extreme temperatures to approximately 550 degrees F (vs. standard couplers that are good to 350 degrees F) and tested up to 180 psi working pressure.

Thanks you guys, I have the plastic clamped directly to the intake elbow. That is the one that kept leaking oil everywhere when I first bought the truck brand new. I ended up putting permatex around the elbow where the plastic would stay on. It has been like that for 40,000 miles. I guess I need the two hose set for the "hot side". I am learning.
