Could you describe what the crankshaft looks like? Is this possible without raising the car as well?
I'll get a 5/8 Deep socket to remove the spark plugs (is that correct)?

You can get to the crankshaft pulley which is what you're actually looking for by remove the plastic splash guard in front of the belly pan. You don't need to raise the car to do this. The crankshaft itself is inside the engine. there is a pulley attached to the end that has a drive belt running around it. that drive belt power the alternator and power steering pump. Look for that at the bottom front of the engine after you remove the splash guard.
5/8 is the correct size for the spark plugs.
I also suggest you invest in the Bentley manual for your truck. Lots of pictures and clear direction on how to fix things.
