I just did mine. I followed a way a poster here said he did it and it works out well..

Pulled front of truck up on ramps ( I didn't just left level on garage floor),removed fuel tank cap and let stand for 20 minutes,removed top filter lid, drained bottom filter ,about a inch in gal. pail. let finish dripping for 5 minutes. Remove top filter and installed new one , then did the same on bottom. Cycled key for 30 seconds 6 times started right up. I popped brake line out of plastic clips to move out of the way, also popped plastic pop ribbet that holds wires to frame so they could be tucked back out of the way.

I used a long extension and a socket to remove frame mounted filter..same size socket as the top engine filter. I also unconnected wire harness around frame mounted filter so the socket could fit in and the filter could come out easier.

It still is tricky getting filter out,new one in and not cross threading plastic threads on filter cap..Too much stuff in the way..
