Steering box instructional?

My steering box started dumping fluid and needs replaced. It's a 98 F150 4x4 4.6l and 194k miles. Has anybody done this and what kind of problems can I expect? Is there a how to video somewhere? I want to try and swap it myself if possible. I hate the idea of paying someone to work on my truck.

I replaced a similar box on an 82 Firebird TransAm years ago. As I remember, it is just an unbolt and bolt it back in. You need to keep track of the steering wheel position and pitman arm location on the box. You may need a puller to get the pitman arm off. Probably can borrow from an auto parts store.
