It's mounted to the outside of the drivers side frame between the fuel tank and engine.

Fram G9344. Having one to look at may help you find it.

FYI 04 and up h2's do not have a serviceable fuel filter. The only filter is in the tank and not serviceable.

No replacing a fuel filter? Really? I wonder why they did that?

FUEL STRAINER
The fuel strainer attaches to the lower end of the fuel sender. The fuel strainer is made of woven plastic. The functions of the fuel strainer are to filter contaminants and to wick fuel. Fuel stoppage at this point indicates that the fuel tank contains an abnormal amount of sediment.

IN-LINE FUEL FILTER
The fuel filter is located in the fuel feed pipe, between the fuel pump and the fuel injectors. The paper filter element (2) traps particles that may damage the fuel injection system. The filter housing (1) is made to withstand maximum fuel system pressure, exposure to fuel additives, and changes in temperature. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Now it's interesting that the Fram number, and WIX number (33129) cross to a Delco GF831 which, according to the Delco site, only fits '03. Odd.

Hummertech is correct, in 04 GM went to a returnless fuel system on all of their fullsize trucks. The only filter you will find is in the tank with the pump.

Man, that sucks for you guys if anything foreign gets in those tanks.
