Air filter removal

What's the trick on getting the air filter out? I can release the 4 clips at the top and see how the rear filter housing is in a slots at the bottom but can't seam to get enough rearward movement to lift the filter out.

I have a 7.3, so not sure it is the same or not.....


There are also bolts in the bottom of the air box.

Make sure you remove the cover for the driver side battery, then it just lifts out.

Don't forget to remove your air box temp sensor!

Sorry,
I thought the 6.0L had a good factory air filter set up. What are you replacing it with?

As I recall the instructions for the SATs were not that hard.

Thanks Again
