Does anyone have a link to a video for my specific model on how to change the rear main and oil pan gasket? I can't seem to find one. The process seems straight forward but I don't want to miss any tricks. Thank you.

For the rear main seal the transmission will need to be removed. Here are two guides that will show you step by step what to do to get the job done. This video shows the work being done on a similar car which the process is very similar for you truck.
