if the track arms are cast then just replace the boots assuming the joints are still OK, if pressed steel arms then replace with cast arms, or are you talking about the track rod end on the steering rack, if so these are screw on screw off and should be replaced if the boots are split
Top pivots if creaking should be changed before they break springs, also consider replacing the front struts if they have not been changed before and also the rear shocks when funds have recovered B4's are nice OEM std
hand brake cable - have the pair replaced Tower bearing, again have this done when funds are available, they don't tend to pack in, just go notchy

Having been swotting on the forum tonight I’m going to ask them some more questions about their quote for the steering rack ball joints and track arms. Every day‘s a school day here. Yes they recommended replacing both cables. About the selector tower, I reckon I could put up with it for a while, but my wife hasn’t driven it yet and I think she might not be so tolerant, and to be fair getting it into reverse can be very difficult if it‘s not in the mood. Mind you they haven’t ruled out the problem being in the gearbox itself.
