ball joint replacement

Hey fellas, I have to replace all 4 balljoints on my 94 F150 2wd. I've got the ball joints, press, and separator, and a Haynes manual.

I was just wondering if any of you could give me ideas of what to look out for and tricks of the trade to make the job easier/less frustrating? Does it work just like it says in the manual? Or am I in for any suprises? Any advise would be appreciated.....thanks for your help!
