Crank sensor is located on the bottom right (passenger side) of truck. It is under the A/C compressor up against the block. You need a 15mm socket to remove the bolt for the ground wire. Then its a 8mm swivel and extension to remove the bolt from sensor. Then remove connector and sensor and replace.

The third link I supplied shows a picture of the right side of the engine (passenger side). Also shown is a picture of the sensor.

jboczar - thanks for posting the bolt sizes!
