If you can move it forward it would, but it may require more drop in the hitch if your tongue weight is correct now, or if you get too much going forward to level it out.

Moab tonight?
Kaboom. Pipe from boosty cooler to intake exploded.
It almost looks like you could clean the pipe and tube, get some hair spray on there and a couple worm style hose clamps. Spray the tube and pipe good with hairspray, slip it all together and tighten the hose clamps up. That might let you limp to someplace with a tube, (Ford Dealer) or order one and have it shipped to Moab Rim or if needed someone like me in western Colorado where you can get it or meet up in Moab. After market is better for this as this is a common issue.
Duct tape. That is after the inner cooler? or going in?
That's post turbo and inter-cooler. Anything done will have to hold up to 20+lbs of boost depending on stock turbo and any tuning that may be done.
The silver thing is the throttle body. This is a common 6.7L Ford issue and several aftermarket companies have solutions.
I’m parked for the night in Salina with a Lowe’s next door. I’m going to let this cool off and try to get it clean.
I tried some tape on the side of the road, but it wouldn’t even stick to itself.

Once clean, hairspray acts like a lube for fit up but then dries into a "glue" of sorts to help hold things together. Couple big 4" hose clamps and you may just get it to stay.
Landed in Galup new Mexico.
One clamp and tape held 9 psi. It did not hold 10. I’m calling it a night and rolling the dice on a speed shop or dealership in the a.m.
Side bar: I found these wipes at Lowe’s this almost instantly clean your hands.
Tube out of truck:

The Fry Bread at Four Corners is the bomb.
Stupid plastic shit. My duramax has the same plastic crap on it. Hope you git er done tomorrow. What are the magic wipes called?
Overachiever..
I tightened a couple of bolts on mine, greased and checked a couple of other things..
Well my bag made it to Denver. We'll see if it gets in the truck tomorrow.
Ford parts site says the dealership has the part in stock.
Best part, is that I'm already almost there. I used to joke about taking an electric scooter on trips. Now I'm going to get one.

I tried to load the Blazer tonight, but it still wants to play around!
Just get a hoverboard. And please video it.
Uber is your friend.
