The 2017 Ford F-450 Super Duty engine air filter sits inside a sealed airbox in the engine bay; the cabin air filter is typically behind the glove box.

The engine airbox uses clips or screws to secure the cover, with the mass airflow sensor nearby—handle connectors carefully. For the cabin filter, lower or remove the glove box and open the access door to reach the element. If access points are tight, our team can swap both filters quickly and cleanly.
