Yep, Ac Delco# C104, GM# 52485513, Fram# CF8791.  Two filters / box.  I believe Ryan has some pretty good pics on his website of this procedure.  The filters are sandwiched in that obnoxious box under the pass side dash.  Change'em two at a time.

once you pull one out there is another one inline towards the front of the truck,i changed mine at 50,000 miles when i wasn't getting any floor heat.

Passenger Compartment Air Filter Description

The filters are located in the heater and evaporator module in front of the evaporator core. The filters are accessed through a cover to the left of the blower motor in the heater and evaporator module. These filters are designed to filter:

 

Fresh air entering the vehicle.

Recirculated air within the vehicle.

In addition to filtering duct particles out of the air, the filters are also designed to filter out unwanted odors that may enter into the vehicle.

 

The filter assembly consists of two separate elements. Each of these filters are identical in appearance and operation. These filters are removed and installed one at a time through the access door. The filters may be bent slightly which will allow for easier removal and installation.

 

The filters have a 12 months or 20,000 km (15,000 miles) change interval. These filters may require frequent change intervals depending on driving conditions

I've never done mine.  I never even new they existed until a couple of months ago.  What is the cost of those bad boys?

AutoZone has some off brand for like $19.95. I havent changed mine yet (currently 12,000 miles) but I checked it about a month ago and they are pretty black. They even make my hands black when I handle them. Yes I do live in a pretty dusty area!

i bought mine from a local dealer for a grand total of 25 dollars. pricey, but after i changed them i noticed for the first yime that i have virtually no dust in my truck,quite clean. now my 87 chevy always has a fine layer of dust on the dash and intument cluster.so next time you get into your truck look around and you might be surprised at how clean your interior is compared to vehicles with no filters.kind of neat :cheers:

Replacing these are easy...  I have Hastings in now.  The air flow is so much better.  Best 22 bucks i spent on the truck...

You can also get them through Amsoil. I paid $17 + s/h for mine and they are made by Hastings.  Now I just need to find the time to install them.  :cheers:

there is a charcoal filter that you can use 1 of with 1 regular filter. this is supposedly recommended for smokers or other strong odor problems. Not sure what the part number is or where to get them, but I know others posted somewhere that they installed them.

    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
