Re-Build a W123 Front End

My cars steering is groaning, stiff, and generally old feeling. First I will check the steering box for fluid and maybe adjust it but I may well be in need for a front end permofix. I have tie-rods, a drag link and ball joints (lower). What else should I buy to do the job right? I'm planning to rent a BJ (oops) tool from performance products to do the lowers. The uppers are new already based on nice soft rubber and shiny control arms. The car's steering is really wierd, pulls a bit left, then pulls right after hard turns in either direction. I'm gonna play around with checking boots etc but need to know is there more I should get, idler arm ???, steering box ??? This is going to be a DIY job so I have to be practical. Since I'm busting my hump anyway, what else should I do while making myself crazy. I'm way too old for this crap, but love it (I think) MANTRA: 30 mpg, 30 mpg, 30 mpg
