Same side as gas tank, on the frame rail about midway down the truck. You should be able to see fuel lines going in and out of it.

Really?

I crawled under and looked. I found the 2 lines (1 for each fuel rail) running on top of the frame rail then disappearing behind the tank shroud. It is crowded down there so maybe I just missed it.

The fuel lines should run from the front of the tank and about 1.5-2 should turn towards the middle of the truck. The filter is protected behind the little guard. I believe it has 4 10mm bolts.

You might also be prepared to spray some gasoline. Some goggles to protect your eyes might not be a bad idea. Also, if you're doing this in a garage make sure you don't have any flame sources (e.g. water heater pilot light).

You can relieve some fuel pressure by removing the fuel pump fuse (left side, lower dash) and starting the engine. It will die immediately.

Just wrap some shop towels around the filter when removing. Some gas does come out--just remember to do it when the catalytic converter has cooled to the touch.
