Question Front End Overhaul on 5th Gen... Prepping for the work in my home garage.

ABOUT MY 4Runner:

2015 Trail Edition 175,000 miles - mostly highway.
* About 1/2 of that with heavy loads (cargo, roof rack loaded, trailer, or other junk)
* Probably about 12,000 off road or rough road
* 1,830 of that was hard off road driving (Loaded, running 4LO, and moderate rock crawling
* Replaced outer tie rod ends on both sides (passenger side twice) with no failures. They just started leaking.
* LFD Off Road Hybrid Front Bumper with Engo Winch (on for 20,000 miles)
* LFD Off Road Full Steel Skid Plates (on for 35,000 miles)
* Dobinson's GS59-700 Shocks with Dobinson's C59-314 Springs (40,000 miles)
* JBA UCAs (40,000 miles)
* Stock Trail Rims
* 90% on stock size tires
* Currently running 255/75R17 Kumho MT71 Tires

THE PROBLEM

I've got an intermittent squeak when I am rolling and turning left. I've gone through and tightened all the bolts to spec, and I have lubricated everything. In doing so, I noticed my CV boot has a very small leak (as do my tie rod ends... again). I'm hoping the CV is the cause of the squeak, and I can do a new boot kit on it and keep it as a backup, but with all these miles I'm thinking about updating all my front end running gear to ensure everything is in working order.

THE PLAN SO FAR:

> 43430-60082 CV Axles on both sides
> Toyota Part # 48068-60040 Right Lower Control Arm (LCA)
> Toyota Part # 48069-60040 Left Lower Control Arm
> Toyota Part # 45046-69245 Tie Rod Ends
> New Boots on the UCAs
> ...and I'm tempted to get SuperPro or other LCAs aftermarket...

QUESTIONS?
COMMENTS?
RECOMMENDATIONS..?


So, where do you guys source this stuff from? Got any tips for the install?
(obligatory searches were done prior to posting - looking for more opinions and recommendations)
