36G Maintenance Questions

[SoIlBoy]

On a 2005 36G with the Cummins ISB 02, 300 HP engine.
How do you reach the fuel strainer that is on the frame above the passenger side above the rear wheels? I can't figure out how to get my hands up there to change the strainer.
Also, how do you get to the front side of the radiator, and the serpentine belt? Are they reached from above from the rear hatch below the bed?
Thanks.

I think the o2 is the same as an 06 like mine so, let's start with the fuel strainer. First, begin brushing up on your curse words before you start.....just kidding of course. It is not easy but once you do it, the second time will go much faster. I disconnect the bracket and disconnect the fuel lines (fuel lines first). This will enable the old filter to come out of the area. You will need to re-use the fittings from the old for the new. You should not experience to much fuel once you loosen the fittings. Reverse the process and your done. Caution, do not damage those fuel line fittings when removing.
The serpintine belt is much easier if you have one person on the top (bed area) and one on the bottom. It is another one of those cursing jobs but it can be done. Loosen the alternator, slack adjuster etc first. The person on top makes life easier as they can reach the upper parts from the bed area. Hope that helps and good luck.
