Changiing ball joints on a 2000 Chevy Blazer s10

I have to change the ball joints on my s10. Never done a set on this year/model. Can anybody give me the run down on what its going to take or should I take it to the shop?

2wd vs. 4wd on these are different...but if it's a 2wd:

Top: Rivet on, so you got to drill the rivets off and punch time out (don't think C10 frame rivets, these are much easier). Then the new ones just bolt right in.

Bottom: Press in and out. I rented a BJ press from Autozone...pretty simple.

Just noticed...it's really the exact same way as a C10...
