Suspension refresh question

I have a 2010 c207 e550 with about 109k miles and the suspension is shot. The front shocks make creaking sounds when turning the wheel and the ride is a tad bit bouncy so I'll be going with H&R springs and Bilstein B8 combo soon. Wondering if there are any other misc parts that should be replaced while I'm in there, I don't need to do a complete suspension overhaul, just looking to replace anything that would reasonably need to be so that I don't have to deal with it again in the near future.

Recommend control arms and sway bar links. Those definitely need replacing due to time and mileage.

This is the kit I bought in 2021 and put on my 2012 E550. Very good high quality components and like them better than the original ones. It should work on your 2010 E550, probably worth calling them to confirm.

Also turning your wheel and hearing creaking could be the control arms. The rubber on them fails after 10 years as well as due to driving habits and then you hear metal creaking.
