Half way there.

Who designs a suspension with no rubber bushings?

Upper and lower shafts, upper and lower ball joints, inner and outer TREs, idler arm and pitman arm.

Previous owner must have taken it to a quick-lube place at one time. 2 of the TRE's had some trace of white grease, as did one of the upper pivots. Yeah, those guys do some quality work. The loose one in the video was so dry that it was galling the shaft.
