You should do a search on "lift pump install" and you'll get more info than you'll ever need. It's not hard, maybe an hour. I didn't remove the filter housing. It's 3 bolts on the lift pump and disconnect the lines coming into the pump. I did mine from above but if your on the short side, it may be a little more difficult but manageable. I have a new lift pump for sale if your interested, still in the bag from Cummins. $130 to your door...
