I need to do both lower ball joints. is there a write up or anyone have the process to do it? do I have to remove the whole hub assembly/knuckle thing or can I do it with all that stuff in place?

You have to tear everything down. You are best off to do the upper ball joints, seals, o-rings, axle dust seals, service needle bearings and replace the u joints if they need it. Tear it apart once and done.
