You're in denial now.
You're also in denial about the looking like Kimi Raikkonen part.

Ok, Josh, looks like the F250 had 3 different brake set ups for 2wd, the heavy one for the f250 and the one for the F350 are the same. The problem is that I have a DRW F350, which takes heaver brake rotors that do not match. sorry, I tried to get you some super cheap brake parts.

Hey, not a problem. Thanks for taking the time to look all that up.

I guess I'll just have to spend money

Should I get pictures of the ordeal?

Anyone interested, there is a factory underhood toolbox on ebay. It does not look like it has a latch or the metal plate that relocates the washer reservoir next to the toolbox. You may want to send him a message asking for that plate.

Ok, I'll have the camera handy tomorrow.

As for the Ebay auction, I would love one, but then I would have a harder time sitting in my engine compartment!

I'm going to call it a night for now.

I may be back later, but I am going to attempt to sleep now, don't know how well it is going to work out, but it's worth a shot.

Wow, only $40, and no bids yet? With no bracket? I would rather wait and keep looking at the junk yard - maybe save myself $30.
