I am doing that right now. Inner and outer tie rod ends, upper and lower ball joints, pitman arm and idler arm, and new springs. I'm replacing it all with Moog parts. Just the parts and alignment, doing all the work myself except the alignment, is costing me about $550.

I could have saved myself a little money and bought cheaper parts from Auto Zone or a kit from performance suspension, but I want rubber parts, and I want good parts.

I assume you mean you will keep the control arms and replace the bushings in them. I can't figure out why you would replace the control arms or studs...
