    I think TOY-640 Is the part # on mine. You should drain the filter housing too before you remove it to make less mess.

    I bought one of these off Amazon. Nice and solid. I bought a cheap steel one beforehand but it just slipped around the cartridge cover.

    Borrow one or use the screwdriver/hammer method to get the old one off. When you put the new one on, just hand tight with a rag. No need to overtighten. Best of luck.

    I use the MotivX one. It works well.

    It's funny the guys offering suggestions that you can tell they aren't familiar with the filter on the original poster's truck with their suggestions of using your hands or a hammer and screwdriver.
