i bought exactly what you are asking for brickwerks and all you need is a decent set of sockets and a hammer to crack the ball joints.

I would invest in a haynes manual though as it is a step by step easy guide

Top ball joints are easy, lower require the use of a press and can be a bit tricky ever with the right tools.
If your only in Manchester, if you get the hubs stripped down and bring them accross I will knock the old ones out and bang the new ones in for you.
