Thanks guys, it was a hard job with the hubs do to all the rust, but now it's all clean and new.
The Ball joints came out easily after flexing that bordure of mushroom head away, the ball joint press did the rest.
Waiting for my radiator to get it done, it's a so easy to replace. Will post some pics.

Nice work! The only thing I would do different:Is not use a bar jack(aka:farm jack) and not have my leg and foot under the control arm during the repair.
