the fuel filter is mounted on the passanger side on the frame just in fronty of the rear wheel you will need a 5/16 socket and a flat screw driver to pry the clips out and the socket is to remove the clamp that holds the filter.(NOS) 8) PS don't break the fuel lines they are plastic.

The fuel filter is on the passenger-side frame just ahead of the rear wheel. Use a 5/16 socket to remove the clamp and a flat screwdriver to pry out the clips. Do not break the plastic fuel lines.
