I was just looking under the hood of my 06 and did not see any spark plug wires. I see the coil pack and just one set of wires that come out of them and they dont look like plug wires. I was thinking of changing my plugs myself but the last four and the drivers side looks like it will be pretty fun. I also wanted to change the plug wires but they must be hiding good. if I have them.

Not sure which engine you have but doesn't matter for your year...neither the 4.7 or hemi have wires for 06. All the plugs are under the coil packs..

Man, you bought a truck with no plug wires!? How could you? :-) Yep, the plugs are under the coil packs and yep, those back four on the driver's side are a PITA. Lotsa folks remove the left front wheel and fender liner to go in from below.

Yup, in 06 they got smart and got rid of the ugly spaghetti mess the previous years had and just went to straight coils on plugs. Funny thing is, they were smart enough to do that from the get-go with the 6.1.
