for my '01 F150, I have an oil filter wrench that is like a big socket that fits over the flutes on the end of the filter. It accepts a 3/8" drive ratchet. I also have a specially cut stick about 18" long, about 1" x 1" cross section. I place the wrench on the end of the filter and use the stick and a hammer to tap the wrench on snug - you can't get it tight enough by hand. It's a lot easier with the left front tire removed but it can be done with the tire on. Once the wrench is snug I can use a flex head ratchet to loosen the filter. to install the filter, just reverse the process. I have found that you can't get the filter in past the tie rod with the wrench on the end, so you have to tap the wrench on with the stick and hammer again. After tightening, a tap from below with the stick will pop the wrench off.
