124 Front Suspension Rebuild

I am about to start working on this project as my daughter want to take the baby to college in the fall.

struts, ball joints (if needed), tie rods, drag link, repack bearings, brake pads as needed.
If you can get ahold of a spring compressor do the control arm bushings.

I would add the upper strut mounts.
It is easier (though more expensive) to replace the whole control arms. They come with new bushings and ball joint - it seems quite a hassle to exchange those items.
