1984 300D and 1985 300SD suspension

I finally had the minute to spend time under Miss Doris today, I noticed all the tie rod ends and lower ball joint rubber caps are dry and crack. I guess this to be expected from seating for 12 years. I have a 1985 126 boddy 300SD from a buddy he is parting out.

Can I take all the suspension hardware re-build them with new lower balljoint, bushing and new tie rod ends for the steering leakage and use them on the 300D 123 body so all I have to do is take all the stuff off the 123 and install all the re-build items.

you could take his rotors, and calipers and upgrade your car to vented rotors.
