Front suspension overhaul

I'm thinking to do a front suspension overhaul when replacing clutch/flywheel/LSD at the same time.

However, a few OEM parts are quite expensive, I'm seeing if there are alternatives:

2 of front inner ball joints: $95.45 x 2
2 of front outer ball joints:$78.20 x 2
2 of steering tie-rod ends:$95.45 x 2

These total to $538.2 just for the parts, kind of defeating the purpose of saving the labor cost.

My car is 2003 MCS at 56k miles.

Any suggestions?
