Spark plugs on V6

I know that I am risking getting flamed for even asking this but here goes anyway.......

I saw a post that detailed the dissassembly of the engine cover and airbox on the V6 for spark plug change.

i've searched all over an i cant seem to find it.

Can anybody point me in the right direction???

I'd like to see what i am about to do before I get in there and start yanking off stuff that might not need to be removed...

Thanks in advance if you can help.

I did my plugs for the first time yesterday. I removed the engine cover, and un-clipped the intake to the airbox. I did not remove the intake or the airbox, just moved the intake out of the way when needed. Hope that helps.

There's a lot of room in the engine bay for changing the plugs. Like was mentioned, all that needs to be removed is the intake (the black tube from the fender). Go out and look at your truck and you'll see how easy the plugs are to get to.

4 of them are easy to get to......the other two not so much.
