I have checked a lot of it at the front when I was changing the calipers. Many of the bushes, nuts, bolts etc. looks new, but I agree, I need to look at everything. I'm not seeing any noticeable play at the wheels when I turn the steering wheel so assumed the steering UJ, bushes & rack mounting are OK. Does this seem a reasonable assumption?
I haven't checked anything at the rear yet but will do so when I replace the brake shoes.
