So this car has has alittle over 200k miles.... I've been meaning to get around to replacing some stuff like tie rods.. and stabilizer links/bars... Already replaced shocks and struts... The car makes a real bad noise when it goes over bumps and those parts are from factory so I'm sure it's past time to replace... But with these newer cars I'm unsure... What would be your list of parts you would be replacing besides tie rod ends in stabilizer bars? I was thinking about doing the control arm bushings... But can't decide whether to deal with the headache of just replacing bushings or just get a whole new control arm.... Am I missing some stuff I should replace or am I just overthinking it?

Also notice that the rear tires have tie rods and stabilizer links... Should I even worry about those they'll look that bad it's not like the rear tires are turning all the time...

Bonus question... If the alignment is good in the front what would make one tire wear to the inside a lot... Wpuld a loose stabilizer link do this or something else?

Bonus question 2: th car has a sealed transmission but know I have a small leak...if I lift all 4 tires off the ground and make the car level I should be able to check the fluid level from the side correct? (I wish I had a lift?

Thanks for any advice
