Which parts to replace in front end

I am doing my first frame-off resto and am at the point to start putting the front end together. I have all the original stock parts which havent been changed since my 72 C10 was originally built. What parts should I replace? Here is what i plan on replacing.

ball joints
U and L control arm bushings
inner and outer tie rod ends
control arm bumpers

What else should I replace? pitman arm? idler arm? control arm shafts?

The originals have the usual buildup and rust but nothing i can't clean up. any advice would be helpful. thanks
