How the heck do you get to your fuel filter?
is it inside the tank?

 

[JasonB]

Yes it is in the tank integral with the fuel pump

 

[Rawkon]

which means dropping the tank and all that hastle.

Yep, it's part of the " fuel module" The fuel module consists of: the fuel pump, filter, fuel level sending unit. The whole thing runs about $250. Depending on how old your turck is, it's not a bad idea to just replace it while you have the tank out already. If your truck is somewhat new, well, then I guess just changing the filter will suffice.
My fuel pump went at around 130,000
so I had to change it

OK, who let dodge "use the brain" again? They just can't seem to have more than one smart idea at a time can they?

Good thing they still build good trucks.

So the filter is in the tank? Not just a screen in the tank and a filter outside of it? Who in the he!! came up with that idea?

I'm glad it isnt that way on the diesel I am getting.

Is it possible to add an in-line filter?
Is it smart to do or does it effect the fuel pressure to the injectors??

Mannn....I don't wanna drop the tack anymore, I did that like 4 times when doing the lift!!!! :

P.S. Guess next time I will have like a 1/4 tank and not almost a full one!! LOL

cut an access hole in the bed of the truck them make a snap in cover then the pump is way easy to change ... takes about 1/2 hour or soo :

Or put a body lift on the truck to create some clearence.
