Question W124 Suspension and Steering Restoration Help

Okay, so heres the deal. I have recently found a nice 1986 300E for $1000. Its such a solid well engineered sedan, and Im stuck on getting all the little quirks out. First thing on my checklist is the creaks and squeeks comming from the suspension and or steering linkages. I have compiled a list of parts and researched prices that may or may not need to be replaced, this is where you guys (the MB professionals ) are going to tell me what I need to scratch and what needs to be added.

List:
  1. Tie Rod Assembly Frnt Rgt+Frnt Lft $48 for both
  2. Drag Link $34
  3. Steering Damper $30
  4. Idler Arm Repair Kit $20
  5. Control Arm Bushing Kit (Pair) $72
  6. Sway/Torsion Bar Bushing $15
  7. Strut Mounts (Pair) $55
  8. Ball Joint (Pair) $32
  9. Sachs Comfort Struts/Shocks (Pair) $235.46
I basically want to allievieate the squeeks and creeks while making my ride and steering feel like "new" for the least ammount of money. I will be doing all the work myself thus labor is not of any concern.

Thank you guys!!!!
