Default lower ball joint replacement

does the cv joint need to come out to replace the ball joint? does the ball joint itself need to be pressed out and then pressed in?

just got done replacing the lower joint, 32mm socket,two pickle forks,and a 5lb sledge hammer did the trick and getting the old joint out of the knuckle was easier then i thought.i think i will do the other side next thanks for all the help and the search engine helped alot.
