Sway bar endlinks are probably gone or rusty as hell. Only like 8 bucks a piece.

Ok. Looking at this thread, it looks like my LH upper spring seat rusted through and broke. My son is SURE we can order the parts and replace it but my question is: As long as I am going to replace one side, I assume I do both and I assume I replace the shocks while I am in there.
Does anyone suggest I do something else while we have it up and apart?
And, it is CRAZY rusty down there on my 1994 F150 XLT. Is it going to be a mistake messing with this and should I just, finally, sell it?

Thanks for your insight. Pics should be in my profile.
