There it is right there above- the picture hints that I don't need the bracket, but the language says I do...so which is it?
The receptacle shown in the link appears to have both a seven wire and a four wire socket beneath the cover. I'd say it needs a bracket just because it's bigger than a single seven wire.
The newer trucks have both the 7 and 4 wire outlets in one plug. The 4 wire plug is the smaller top cover.
If he had taken some time and looked before getting all bat/**** crazy he would have seen that. All you do is remove the bracket and install it into the bumper. Maybe he was just having a bad day, we all have been there at one time or another.
