Default Front/Rear Suspension Refresh

Doing some suspension refresh,needing some inspo/advice

Fs is the front upper and low control arm and rear lower control arm
Planning to go with battle version since I heard good
things

Gonna replace front and rear sway bar end links and outer tie rod using battle version aswell

Couple things I’m wondering,
Y’all got any good ideas about where I can find a inner tie rod? Couldn’t seem to get one on the bv website,

Y’all recommend bv? Or is there a suspension company that does the same stuff for cheeper

And where to get some good poly eurothene bushings,when I air out it puts natural camber and stresses the stock bushings out,

Also in yalls opinion..stock or aftermarket differential bearings

And finally anything else y’all recommend suspension wise for thr 158k mile mark? Thank you!
(Not a drift car/drag car,just wanting to get some suspension components that will last,and make the car ride a lot more smoother)

Recently snapped my passenger side Traction Rod wondering if I'd be able to just throw a driver's side Traction Rod on there.. At the junkyard the passenger Rod has already been taken so I've been left with the driver's side only... Asking for a friend here
Thank you
