Post Computer bracket part #?

Does anyone know the part # for the back bracket for the computer. It's the back bracket right where the chip goes in underneath the dash on the passenger side. The bracket is about 8 inches by 1.5 inches, its got the little lip and the plastic clip to hold the back end of the computer. Had to modify mine cause of the chip(want to be able to put original back in for any warranty concerns). The small town dealer(pop. 1500) can't seem to find the right #. It would be the same # for all F150 97 to 01. Thanks for any help!!!

I am curious as what chip you used, that you had to modify the bracket. I didn't have to do anything to the bracket in my 99 when installing a chip.

I just installed JDM's chip and had to bend the lip over also.

You have to bend the lip over or drill new holes in the bracket to move it back about a quarter inch to offset the thickness of the chip, or the chip won't sit flat on the back of the computer( the chip hits the lip on the bracket)
