I searched for a good 10-15 minutes for the write-up that i believe was posted in in 4.6 Tech a while back for replacing the ball joints and outer tie-rods. I have a Chilton manual but it talks about the ball joints being pressed in but i thought it could be done with a pickle fork and a BFH as well?

Any links to help out with this install? Do i need to go to a machine shop to get them pressed in or what? I called around and these shops want like $400 for labor, i already have the parts. Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
