FLoyd,

Struts, strut mounts, and likely the front LCA need to be replaced.   If
Wilton's parts are in your shed, they may work.   In theory you can replace
the bishings in the LCAs, but from a practical standpoint, most just buy
new LCAs.   I have 2 sets of W124 LCAs in need of bushings, but they are S,
and I am not.   Check tie rods and idler arm bushings too.

A 124 with the suspension right, is like a race car: rocket on rails.
