How to replace kingpin?

What is the best way to change a kingpin? '73 F-100, 2wd. Front right kingpin appears to be worn. I've been told to heat up the assembly it holds together and pound it out and heat the assembly and pound it back in. The other approach is to heat it up and use a hydraulic jack to push it up and out and heat it up and push the new one in. What are yall's thoughts on this?
Shout out to Franklin2 for his help with my seized rear axle bearing, Thanks!!
