You are talking about the tension on your fan belt? If the belt is still on, use your ratchet to insert into the square hole on the tension arm. Use the ratchet as a lever to move the tension are so you can slip the belt off. Then just unscrew the arm, get the new on, screw it in, and replace the belt and you are good to go.
If it is a serpentine belt you replace the tensioner pulley
If you're standing at the front of the truck and looking into the engine compartment the tension pulley is on the left side about half way down.

Typically, there is one pulley that is mounted on a spring arm to maintain proper belt tension. Just turn the bolt on the idler pulley and the tensioner will release.
