Now, how much work is replacing all four upper and lower front hub balljoints? A lot? I've just seen that for discbrake models, you need a washer over the driveshaft to refit the hub.

It not that hard dude :) Did it myself about 6 months ago, took about 30-40 mins to do each one, including dismantling and rebuilding. Make sure you lap them in :)

The ball joints tend to have ridges in them from manufacture so they have to be removed by using grinding paste to smooth them off and make them a good fit. Search "lapping ball joints" on here, there's a few discussions and guides; there's also a very good one on YouTube :)
