Default Installing full suspension, what minor wear and tear things to replace?

I'm going to be installing koni shocks, strano springs, sways, and watts link this month and am wondering what little things I should replace. The car has 108k on it so im sure they're pretty worn out.

This is a good thread I found in my search. I'm doing all of the rear suspension parts on my car in the next couple of weekends, (swaybar end links, swaybar mounts, Lca bushings, replacing the panhard bar. I have similar milage to your car, and my lca bushings are shot, at least the one I took apart last weekend was, I could push the inner rubber out with 1 finger.

I have a pretty comprehensive parts list on my website of the parts needed for a suspension re-fresh. Plus I also have a couple of write ups on how to replace bushings.
