Planning on replacing front shocks on my '96 850 wagon w/140,000 miles.

Noticed a lot of parts available for replacement, besides the actual strut itself.

For those who have done this before, in addition to the strut itself, what would you recommend replacing.

Rubber dust boot
Rubber bump stop
Rubber spring seat
Strut mount
Fitting (is this just a fancy-looking nut?)
Cap (is this just a cover for the Fitting?)

FCPGroton also lists various other bolts and washers.

I don't want to take apart the suspension and then have to wait a week for parts I should have ordered up-front.

Does anyone have suggestions as to what I should plan on replacing and what is likely okay to re-use?

Thanks.
