Cabin filter????

Do our trucks have one. Also is the intake accessible? I have had a problem with my dogs hair clogging up evaporators in all our vehicles and finally made my own filter for our SUV. Only those with dogs will understand why this is taking place. (The Shepherd insists on going no matter what, & it's nice to be able to run into a convience store & leave her in there w/ the AC staying on! She is my alarm so to speak)

Ford doesn't have a cabin filter for the SDs. I would need to take apart the dash (seems as I do this for whatever current mod I'm working) to see if I could find a opening for the recirculation air.

If you didn't use the MAX A/C setting, your truck would not be using the air inside the cab for cooling. I would suggest using the A/C setting ( outside air) till you (or someone here) has the dash apart to find the recirculation intake area.

Cab Fresh Cabin Filter

Call Cab Fresh at 1-800-457-3739. I ordered a #19200 which is an F-2000 New Super Duty Filter kit. It screws down over to stock cowling by the driver's side wiper. Their part number for the replacement filter element is R19200. The filter kit includes one plastic housing to screw down and a single filter for $50. The replacement element is $18 It filters pretty well for dirt and pollen, but will not cut down on odors. I tried to install a filter in the blower motor housing like I did in my '97 Explorer. It did not last but a day before it failed! I installed the Ford factor filter kit in my '01 F-150 and it works great. I partially disassembled the dash in my F-250 and discovered no really good way to install a filter in the air plenum box. I have been using the filter from Cab Fresh (on my third filter element now) for about 2 and a half years. By the way, it works fine when wet. This will not work for the internal air filtering, but you can try the cut able filter material from Home Depot, etc and attaching it to the outside of the air intake box under the glove box. I tried that but did not like the way it looked (and it only worked for recirculation in the Max AC mode) and the wife did not like having to always be careful of her feet to not kick it. Your dog will probably not care how it looks!
