Need help with the oil change

[RhinoTAC]

As many of you may know, my 5 ton was 1 of 2 prototypes custom made into an armored troop carrier. They moved somethings around and 1 of those things is the oil filter. I need suggestions on how to properly remove the canister with normal tools as I have just the basics. I never was a mech in the Corps, just a knuckle draggin grunt.

Appreciate the help and pics are below.

Remove the downwards facing drain plug.

Drain the canister then remove that bolt in the rear of the canister and It will come off

ditto

sometimes a funnel and a hose to direct to a bucket makes less of a mess.

And when reinstalling don't let the canister turn as you tighten it.

And now might be a good time to consider coverting to spin on...

Just a hint on oil drain mess, I've found that the big plastic mortor tubs helps, cheap $17 big box or lumber yard. I put my normal oil drain pan inside. What ever misses is caught by the mortor tub. Rest of the time in lives under the major drip point of the truck in the garage.
