Ball joint press

Hello, I need to replace the upper and lower ball joints on my '02 F250 4x4. What ball joint press do I need? Will any press work? I know NAPA sells two or three different presses. Also MAC and/or Matco sell a master ball joint service kit. Will one of their smaller, less expensive kits do the job? Thanks!
