    What page of the manual does it tell you how to change the air filter? I did it but couldn't find it in the manual???? I bought an AFE Pro Dry-S for the PreRunner and for my 2003 Supercab Ranger, replacing a K+N in that one. It took a month from Ultimate, because they order from AFE and it is sent direct from the factory. One of the filters was back-orderd, so it took almost a month to get them..........Rich

    Oops. Sorry about that Rich. I don't think it's in the owners manual. There's also no mention of the location of the oil filter or the cabin air filter.

    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    what u do is look where the tubing from the air box meets the intake box and there are 2 "c" shaped clips that u pop loose and the hose has part of the box on it and the filter rests inside that part. hope this helps some

    on the housing with the clips there are two little tabs that hold the back of the cover tight. make sure you get them to go inside the spots or else the housing will have a gap and the motor will be able to suck air from the crack and it wont get filtered. its all too easy to do unless you know exactly how it goes on and off.
