Advance Auto has 40% coupon codes floating around on a regular basis, and this includes free shipping. It's capped at $40 off per order, so split the order into multiple orders as needed. And get everything:

ball joints
control arm bushings
inner and outer tie rod ends
tie rod end sleeves
center link
pitman arm
idler arm
springs

I'd also do the Jeep Cherokee steering shaft swap.



And I'd address any issues with the brakes while you're in there, and inspect and at the least repack the wheel bearings. I think you could buy all the parts for the above for well under $500, but I haven't priced anything. And after everything above is done, if there is any slop or wander throw a reman steering box on it.
