Front Axle U-joint write up?

I've searched around and can't find a write up on u joint replacement w/ pretty pictures for novices like myself. I've read MadXJ's article on replacing the whole axle, but I only need to replace the u-joints. Does anyone know of any write ups out there?

Take axle to local Machine shop, and drop 25 bucks on the counter
Wait 30 min
Pick up axle with new joints.
Replace in reverse of removal.
