Good idea. :-)

I had an LBZ concurrently with my LMM. LBZ was easier. I could also pull the filter out the top.

I have been changing our fuel filter each summer but can pull it up and out. Carry everything to do the work incaseas we travel.

Access door in the fender well is a huge time saver.

I need to carry one too.

The Ram/Cummins guys could really use that access door to access that pesky oil filter.

This video applies to LB7-LMM for sure. I think LML and later use a different style filter.

LML still uses that filter. L5P does not

Thank you. Good video for those who have done it and those who have not. Wheel well door really makes access easy. Even though I have done this numerous times it's a good refresher to jog my memory. Everyone should know how to do this as bad fuel will put you on the side of the road quickly. I always carry an extra filter.
