How bad/urgent do these look?

I haven't noticed anything while driving, but I was under my 85 300td the other day and saw these. These are torn dust jackets correct? Also, just so I know, I'm looking at one tie rod end and the other two are control arm ball joints? Is there anything to do now, or do I wait until the joints themselves start to fail?

Any test I can do with the car on jack stands to see whether they're in need of replacement?

Thanks!
