Default 6.5 fuel filter relocate

I've been posting a lot of threads in here lately I know, keeping you 6.5 guys on your toes hah

Anyways..

I have a small leak from one of the seals on my fuel filter housing, I was wondering if any of you guys have relocated yours ? I've seen some guys put it by the driver side battery or on the fire wall ? I was thinking fire wall or like on the wheel well hump driver side of course!

Only real reason being is I have to remove it anyways to do the seal and for future problems it would be a great location especially for future filter changes!

Let me know what you guys think!

Thanks

Anywhere you desire is good.

The factory put in it's location so engine heat would help keep fuel from gelling in cold temps,just use antigel and you will be fine.
