I found out that my truck listed above needs the crank shaft position sensor, and I do not know where it is or how to do it.

Hello,

The crankshaft position sensor is located at the front crankshaft pulley, at about 10 O'clock.
See image below.

A good video on how to replace:

You will need to remove the battery to make space to remove the intake air pipe.
