Advice / Help with parts

Ok, the front end floats a little when i drive and i got a mate to check it out and he said i need to replace the idler and drag link in the front and rear shakle kits for the rear
The front discs are somewhat on the thin side so going to do those as well

Got a power steering kit to put on so plan to do it all in one hit and thought i might as well do the whole steering while im there so it drives nice and it will be safe

I know a number of you have had these kinds of issues so i thought i would get peoples views if i need anything else and if the parts m looking at are ok and the right prices
