pull off hubs, pull off spindles, and pull out axle shafts. then you can access u joints.

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/9...-u-joints.html Also click on this link and have a read. If just doing universal joints you would not have to go as far as the ball joints (but check them just in case).

They are press fit, but it can be done without any special tools.
