about to replace ball joints

im about to start replacing my bolt in ball joints here at home.............will grind out the metal rivets and replace with bolts included with new joints. i realize i need to make sure the lower a frame is supported up to keep the spring in place, but are there any other things i am overlooking? blocks underneath for safety first. what bout a cutting torch (and a steady hand) to remove the rivets.....bad idea?
thought somebody might save me now before i kill myself lol.
looks like a pretty easy job.......will only replace the one upper that appears to be out.

thanks for any advice scorns or comments
