Replace the intake air filter box on a Dodge Ram by reconnecting the breather hose and sealing the intake duct against unfiltered air.

Steps

1. Remove the old air box

   Loosen the intake duct clamp and disconnect the duct and breather hose from the air box. Lift the box straight out of its mounts.

2. Install the replacement box

   Confirm the intake seal is correctly seated, then lower the new box onto its mounts. Tighten the duct clamp and reconnect the breather hose and intake tube.

3. Check the intake connections

   Inspect the duct for gaps and ensure the breather hose is fully engaged. Start the engine and listen for an intake leak or loose component.

Check your vehicle’s repair manual for exact specifications and fit.
