changing front discs 4x4 1 ton

Okay , so my rotors are finally shot. How hard is it to change them, its a 1996 1 ton dually 4x4, Im somewhat mechanically inclined and need to save the money. Should I replace the ujoints while im there? What special tools do I need and can I rent them from Autozone or such? Any help greatly appreciated. Happy Holidays.

Beware, there are a lot of cheap Chinese rotors and hubs at the autoparts nowdays.
They don't last.
