Icon5 Am i missing anything?

So, my SO has a 96 accord, 2.2 non-vtec
5 spd manual.

thing runs like a dream, with 178 freshly rolled on the ODO
clutch feels good, all that
Head gasket and timing has been done recently so im moving to the front suspension.

I'd like to do all of it in one go, then get my alignment but was wondering if i might be missing anything before i start, so figured I'd ask yall.

So far the parts sitting new in my garage are Quick struts (monroe)

a 10 piece front suspension kit she ordered that includes upper A-arms, ball joints (upper and lower), both inner and outer tie rod ends, sway bar bushings/links.

both sides CV axels

Both new lower control arms.

I'm pretty sure I've got everything to start this. unless something special is required i should have all the tools needed.

anyone see anything missing?
Brake pads and rotors are new, as well as the wheel bearings.

Radius rod bushings?
If those are worn the caster will be skewed or the wheel will not be properly located fore/aft.
