Scott gives a thorough description of all the things to replace at the
above link.  

I'd replace the subframe bushings while you have the control arms off.
Tranny mounts will be off at that stage and might as well be replaced as
well ... 2 x $10 for those.  Bentley says to replace all fasteners.  The
total cost for all new nuts/bolts adds up ... Blau lists the cost for all
the suspension nuts/bolts if you want to check it out as a reference.  I'd
definitely replace the ball joint bolts.  If you re-use the subframe bolts
make sure to clean the waxy undercoating stuff off the threads with solvent
before replacing them.  I think this stuff tends to gum things up leading
to stripped threads on the captive nut, and much cursing.
