I know we have a fuel filter cause all cars do. also your air filter of course. oil filter. and a transmission filter usaully. this is just based on my knowledge of cars. however i dont know on a crew where there are. oh and dont forget the blinker fluid filter.

j/k sorry I could be much help. but there are some things to look for

ya, there are a few filters on our trucks. if you want to learn about all of them and where they are and when to change them...go to a pep boys and get a HAYNES s-10 book for your year of truck. the first chapter is on maintance. good luck!

39K on my truck now. So far the filters that I have changed have been Air cleaner multiple times, trans filter twice, and the fuel filter once. the tranny and air filter locations are pretty much a no brainer , however it took me a few minutes to find the fuel filter. It is located on the frame reail under the drivers door. it took about 10 minutes to change, 5 minutes of that to get the tools together (Son has been working in the garage lately) The owners manual has been pretty good about describing the recomended mileage for maintenance.

I got 46k miles and haven't touched the fuel filter yet. And now I never change the air filter since I got a K&N.

Trans filter? Where is that?

In the tranny. Get the deep sump filter.
