I bought this truck and it looks like it’s missing some part behind front bumper but I don’t know what parts they are. Does anyone know what parts are missing? Pictures are attached
I'm pretty sure what you have is a diesel setup there. Those are holes for the diesel radiator and coolers setup. Has this truck been converted from a diesel to gas?

I bought the truck used so I don't know it was converted from diesel. However, when checking the VIN, it is gasoline truck with 5.4l
I haven't dealt with a gasser in that year range but I do know that the bottom brackets are for diesel setup. They could be there for both gasser and diesel. It just seems like looking through your grill the coolers look like they were just placed there without any alignment. Maybe it's the angle of the camera but to me it looks unorganized in there.
As far as any panel that might cover the lower area behind the bumper I know diesels don't have anything to hide that area. Hopefully someone with a gasser can help you out.
As I understand it the brackets are for the diesel intercooler. Not used for the gasoline model however Ford left them there to simplify. On my gas SuperCab cut mine off so that I could fit a front receiver between the frame horn/rails.
Here is the picture with hood opened. Not sure if the truck got mod’ed in the coolant system but it doesn’t look right.
Is there any mud cover underneath at this area?
Those intercooler brackets are on my 08 5.4 truck as well. There's a rubber flap that attaches to the bottom of the bumper and sits on those intercooler brackets to probably help deflect air up into your coolers. The coolers do look haphazardly placed.

Thanks for confirming. The black cooler in my truck seems to be an aftermarket additional transmission oil cooler (Hayden brand) that previous owner added in. It’s connected to the stock transmission oil cooler located between radiator and condenser. Not sure why it is needed.
would you send me pictures showing the rubber flap on your truck. I just want to get parts and fix my truck as it’s supposed to be
thnx
I just looked at my invoice again to make sure the part number was correct. I just replaced mine in March and it cost 17.61. Now they did charge 28.00 dollars to ship to Florida. It was a Motorcraft part and fit like glove.

where did you order. I only see $48, not $28 for the part number you provided
