99f150 upper control arm/camber adj question

ok so i have come to the realization that i will be swapping in two new upper control arm/ball joint assemblies sometime soon but my question is

1> is it as simple as it looks ...seperate the ball joint and unbolt the two bolts that hold the ctrl arm to the mount??

2>i am told when installing the aftermarket parts i will also need to install the camber adj kit found here Cam Bolt Kit by Moog - Part K8740 - Advance Auto Parts
my question here is does this kit just replace the stock bolts and is there a certain way that the bolts\washers go in /have to be positioned

never done it so just going on what Chiltons says.
1. Yes it is that easy. Just make sure the whole weight of that side of the truck is supported on the lower control arm.
2. Don`t see why. I would think you would mark the position of the stock bolts before lossening them and then refit to the mark. If you need a camber alignment done after, then I would have thought the stock bolts could take care of it.
