Steering/Suspenshion wear parts on the w126

I'm just about to place an order at fastlane.

The problems sofar:
- Horrable vibration during speeds >55mph
- Wandering steering
- Loose feeling steering wheel (no, steering box adjustment didnt help)
- Rear end wants to "drive itself"
- Cam oiler's (esp. right side) broke
- Bad plug wires
- Plat. plugs (eek)
- Horrable idle, and running increadbly rich (leak somewhere in Idle air hose)
-Vibrations in steering wheel (and gaspedal)
- bad shifter bushing (shifting from park to reverse/drive) makes a nice CLUNK sound.
- Cabin filter is missing it's hose, and I dont know here it go's
- Vac. line off of the (right side) valve cover leads to knowwhere...

List:
- Bushings (x3)
- Subframe Mounts
- Flex Disk (front)
- Bosch plugs
- OEM Spark Wires
- Cam Oiler repair kit (those plastic peices)



What am I missing?
