Glow plug question

Hello everybody, I have a quick question. According to my truck I have a bad glow plug (#3). Code scanner says power failure on glow plug #3. My question is, how hard is this to change? #3 is the second one back on the passanger side correct? thanks in advance for your help. Greg W.

Thanks everybody, I talked to my local fort tech and that's exactly what he said. I removed the inner fender and replaced the glow plug with no issues. Thanks for your help. GW
