Default gm front end noises

been having some clunking sounds when i go over bumps in my truck
it just rolled over 200000KM and has never had any bushings done in it so i was thinking this spring im going to put new idler and pitman arms HD tierods balljoins and was thinkin maybe bushings in the control arms and sway bar. anyone know a decent source for the bushings? or any other things that commonly go clunk?

i would bet it needs a intermediate steering shaft. its a common problem for these trucks. you can also remove it and lube it. i have used general purpose wheel bearing grease with good luck.
