Yes, because the filter is part of the pan itself. You can either replace with an OEM style or get a PPE pan with a replaceable filter. I did PPE because I'm hoping to keep this truck for lots of miles.Question, is it required to replace the pan? If so, I’m assuming because the drain plug had a pipe that sticks a few inches above the bottom of the pan and doesn’t design the bottom of it, if so. Plus the filter change.
