Default What's involved in swapping out a crank?

I don't need detailed instructions, basically I want to know what I should replace while I'm down there and what other stuff I may run into.

if it were me and I had the $$ I would replace the berings, rings, and any gaskets. Basically a bottom end kit. Why? just for reassurance....

front and rear main oil seals.
oil pan gasket
you might as well do you water pump and timing belt too
valve cover gasket
you can also do your axle seals on the tranny too if you take it out..
