cabin filter

i thought i'd better go ahead and ask before i forget to address it, do the OBS trucks have a "cabin filter"? I've worked and taken apart my truck inside and out doing other stuff, but i'm not real sure if it has a filter for the air coming from the heat and a/c.
Had the truck for 4 years, but even after that long the "horse musk" smell is still somewhat there. it doesn't bother me, but the woman has allergies and etc, etc, etc, ... you know what i get all the time. The people before me had horses and I milk cows, but nothin mines nothing like that smell.
other than wiping down the inside of the vents, is there a filter to change out?
any help would be great.

I've been wondering the same thing. The inside of mine doesnt really have any smell until i turn the a/c on, then it smells like dirt. (if youve ever replaced a window in an older house you know what im talkin about)

dunno

well, ask the guy at oreilly's to look it up and he said they did have them, cause he looked one up in the book.
i haven't looked yet, cause i can get about a gallon and a half of diesel for the price of the $15 filter.

Sound like you need to clean out your a/c condensor.
