Bought a new fuel filter for my truck today and I put it on the lift changed the oil rotated the tires and got to the fuel filter and I can't find the darn thing!!! First ext cab so maybe im just over looking it. Its my 04 ext cab in my sig. Thanks

Do you have the return system or an evap? I have an '06 and mine is an evap, meaning the only fuel filter is the one attacted to the pump's inlet inside the gas tank.

well I do not know. I guess its a evap there only two lines coming from the tank to the engine. So does that mean all its got is the sock/strainer on the bottom of the pump?

it might not have it if it is flex fuel. but if it does it should be by the trans cross member on the left side of the frame

[gtxbrad]

nope no flex fuel and nope no filter there

Look at your fuel rails. If you have ONE line feeding the rails then you have the evap AKA returnless. And yes, that would mean you only have sock/strainer on the bottom of the pump.
