Question Removing Air Filter? 6.0 Liter Turbo Diesel?

Simple question, so try not to rip on me too bad but I read through the manual and they have a nice twist and pull example of removing the air filter from a Gas Truck. For the 6.0 is just says 3 little paragraphs about remove, clean, & replace. Well i unclip the 4 clips and it seems like the front where the air hose wants to come off but then I have the damn battery cable in the way and the entire housing will not budge how do I remove this damn thing? Is there any pictures for the air filter handicaps such as myself?

It certainly isn't easy, but it isn't as hard as reinstalling the filter!

There is a clip on the bottom of the filter that extends below the front and rear pieces of the housing. You need to push the front one forward and the rear backwards while slightly pressing the filter down to get it to release the clips. It helps if you can grown another hand or two.

Ford wrote a tech bulletin on it because it's not easy.

I'm not nervous about it, I know it's true. I want to be sure all of you know that I am not a Ford spokesperson.
