1984 300DT: Parts list for front end suspension restore

I'm beginning the parts acquisition for the front end suspension restore for the 1984 300DT. The list of parts (including peach parts parts numbers) is as follows:

116-333-09-27-M69 Lemforder lower ball joints (2)
123-330-13-75-MBZ Control arm bushing kit (2) front inner lower
123-330-14-75-MBZ Control arm bushing kit (2) front lower outer
116-330-00-18-MBZ Control arm busing repair kit with eccentric pin
123-320-00-30-M12 Shock absorbers (2)
000-338-50-10-M69 Tie Rod ends(2) left hand thread
000-338-52-10-M69 Tie rod ends(2) right hand thread
126-460-08-19-M69 Idler arm bushing kit
000-463-51-32-M24 Steering Damper

I've already replaced the upper ball joints with:

123-330-47-07-M69 control arm front right upper

123-330-46-07-M69 control arm front left upper

Can anyone think of any other parts/parts numbers I may need to order to complete the front end suspension restoration?

Not unless you banged up the steering damper, i wouldnt replace it. Save your money. Get the original MB idler arm bushing kit. Tortion bar bushing?

I've always ended up doing all 4 shocks at nearly the same time. They can be changed independently of rear bushings and rears have always been nearly as bad as the fronts on the neglected cars I've had.

Hey! Thanks! This was exactly the parts list I was looking for and in my first search for "w123 suspension parts" this thread was the sixth one on the list. Saved me a lot of time and searching in the EPC with this link
