    Hope this works...

    I was looking for a good place to put a Warn control pack relocation, and on the passenger side very near to the firewall, but on the wheel-well, I see this sort of triangular bracket with 3 bolts sticking up. Anybody know what this is for? Intended use?

    FYI - 2015 DCSB OR

    Thanks much,

    I suspect that it is a jack mount or perhaps a mount for something associated to a non-usa model. Or perhaps for the 4cyl engine.

    On non-off road model trucks the brake controller gets mounted there...

    Use the space as you see fit.

    as others stated, your OR has a different abs/traction/a--trac system that leaves this spot in the engine bay open. so much room for activities!
