126 Suspension Problems

Hi folks,
I've got an '85 300SD that has developed a pretty bad front end clunk while going over bumps, hard braking, etc. I have done some suspension/steering work before, but mostly just older(simpler) American cars.

I would like to do a pretty thougrough rebuild while I have it apart, but I can't seem to find a manual/schematic for these cars. What would you guys recomend as far as a manual with a good schematic and torque specs?

Also wondering what you guys think of this kit:

It seems to be a pretty complete kit, I guess I would still need new guide rod kit, right?

Thanks for the help guys!
