It is on the inside drivers side frame rail in between the front and rear wheels.

Takes a 5/16" fuel line tool to get it off.

yep, takes under half an hour to change. spraying some wd-40 on the inside of the fitting will make it easier. Just insert the tool until you hear a pop, twist it some, then pull off the line.

Huh, Yeeeaaa...- I always wondered how you'all went about that - I did mine with a pair of bolt cutters and a hammer..No problems whatsoever
