Filter 1 is on the driver side of the engine mounted to the block. You will need a 29mm socket to undo this.  You will also likely need a elbow or 2 to get around the hood cowl.  Note the cap is plastic so take care not to strip it.

Filter 2 is located just in front of the Rear Axel centered above the drive shaft.  This filter is a screw on filter.  

 

** please note that you will get a good amount of fuel spillage when you unscrew this filter.  Ensure your eyes are not going to be leaked on.

Note the water in fuel sensor / drain.  this sensor can be unplugged from the truck harness to make removal easier.  

 

The Part number for this is PFRK54553  but you dont need to replace unless damaged.  a new o-ring comes with the filter.
