Vacuum brake booster canister, often called a 'vacuum pump' and some bumpers require a relocation kit ($20)

Half right. If u notice it's already got an aftermarket bumper on it so no need to relocate. Depends if you are doing a drop winch. Mine is and had to move it. My Bros and this one are not drop so don't need to move
