Front suspension fix....go all the way or fix only what's broke?

Here's the deal: The guide rod mount bushings (as described on FastLane) are shot on my 126....quite typical from what I hear. I also have one lower ball joint on its way out and a tie rod end. The upper ball joints look ok. Boots are intact. So here is my question: Do I do an entire front suspension rebuild "while I'm at it" or do I just fix the lower ball joints, tie rod ends and guide rod bushings?
