Rep Power: 285

I have 128k kilometers on my 02 Si/Ex and I'm on totally original suspension.
I'm planning on ordering the following in the next couples days:

Tokico, front and rear struts.
OEM front strut mounts.
Energy Suspension, LCA bushings.
Moog, Ball joints.

I'm planning on repacking the bearings with fresh grease to avoid ordering new ones. I've heard about other guys replacing the tie rod ends and sway bar end links, but I wanted to confirm that you only need to replace those if the current ones are damaged?
Am I missing anything?

Also, are these jobs very difficult? The most intense DIY I've done is my brakes, so I'm a bit nervous...

Thanks in advance guys!

sounds good to me! the ES lca bushings are a shop install since you need a press to get em on. for suspension, see Mex's spring and shock diy. and the other ball joint diy. tie rod ends you will prolly rip the boots removing em.

Is it possible to replace just the tie rod boot, or will I need to buy the whole thing?

Edit:
Energy Suspension makes replacement tie rod end boots that cost $3.89. I can only find them listed as fitting up to 2000 civics, but their website says that its fine as long as the tie rod is larger than the minimum dimensions; I'm going to buy a set as an experiment.
