After readin this thread and seeing the pics I just picked up a new filter have 150k on the original filter lol wayyy over due lol

Haha good idea. Btw just a thought for the thread, I don't think my brother used any special tool to change mine.

Glad I changed it what came out was just nasty an there is a tool to disconnect the lines looks like this

Gross haha yeah Ik the tool is out there, I swear my bro just had plyers though haha. I noticed a difference in my truck the new filter, still shuddered but not as bad. The new plugs took the shudder away completely though.

Plugs are next but I have a 5.4 so should be awesome :$

Lol..I lucked out, my 4.2 was amazingly simple. Hope they come out good for you.

I hate to but I'm most likely going to pay someone else to do it... I would rather do my own work but I can get it done for a locked in price no matter how many break so I'll probably go that route. I have a 2000 f150 with a 4.2 and it's a great motor. Tough as nails! Come to think of it that truck had one of the toughest trannys I've ever seen!

Same thing happened to me, brought the old filter in to show them.
