01 f150 4x4 ball joints

going to help buddy replace all ball joints,looks pretty straight forward just wanna ask few questions.Going to replace complete upper control…bolts in upper bushings,are they fairly easy to get out or a battle? and do we need to completely remove axles or will steering knuckle come off without removing them…thanks
