Not much was missing, only five line items. Pretty good odds considering how many items was shipped.

15712 - Rectangular Rear Lights. Just clearly not in the box.
10613 - Rear View Mirror was broken

The confusing ones are:
12446 - Rollbar Box. What is this? Everything for my roll bars was in the same box and it looks complete to me but I'm not sure.
16664 - Pedalbox Top Support. I tried making sense of this. I even used the separate Willwood manual from F5 from their website but there's no mention of a top support, nor did any of the pictures show me what it looked like.
16348 - No driveshaft on any list anywhere! I'm pretty sure that should have been a line item on one of these lists. I only know the part number because it's on my order confirmation.

For two of those remaining items, the main reason I'm questioning it is because they were the only line items left unchecked with nothing left in the box. This leads me to believe they're missing. Any help would be appreciated.

And just in case anyone was curious, the only big ticket items on the POL list for me was the J-pipes, gauges, front rotors and some other brake bits, fuel pickup and sending unit, as well as some random fasteners and hoses. That driveshaft is just MIA somehow.

My advice would be to discuss with FFR. You already need to contact them for the missing items anyway. My take on the roll bar would be to point it out to them and see if they call out anything that could be missing? Hardware, grommets if you ordered them, etc. The Wilwood top brace is a new part that looks like an X that bolts into the four raised bosses to add rigidity.

I believe their new inventory system calls out the box sometimes as if it were a part in the box. Specifically the roll bar box.

Ignore the rollbar box and 1/2 rollbar box. it's the size of the box. The big boxes are the size of the roolbar box. the smaller ones are dubbed the 1/2 rollbar box. Either way, its just the packaging, just ignore it.

Had the same question for FFR....

The pedal box top support i *believe* would be the CNC cut steel square plate with an X in the middle. It attaches to the top of the pedal box - the 4 supports with threaded holes. I agree i also didnt find reference in the manual, but I saw an image of it in the coyote electrical instructions when they show installation of the clutch switch. it's there. I can try to find a picture.

Thank you. That was part of my kit and I wasn't sure what it was for. I thought it was a block off plate for the clutch adjuster in the firewall if you went with a hydraulic clutch.

Thanks everyone, that clears those two things up. I've still got to contact them but this help shortens the list.

Have a great holiday season everyone!

I'd bet money that the support bracket is pretty much unchanged so at least you'll know what you are looking for...Here's an oldie but a goodie and the pedal box assembly may have changed a bit since this video is nearly 10 years old:

It is a little confusing trying to figure out the "rollbar box" line until you see that every sheet has that or "1/2 rollbar box" on it. I have one sheet that had one real item in it but was used to list out how many feet of brown paper was used and how many feet of tape to close the boxes. Something to consider is to keep some of the that 33+ feet of brown paper like I did to use as a barrier between aluminum panels after they were painted. I still have some to put down in places like in the cockpit floor before stepping in and getting shoe prints all over.
