front end play \ strut mount need replacement?

I'm trying to diagnose the vibration I have at 60 mph:

i have the car apart and found play in the tie rods, i have 2 new ones to install

i will be getting new tires, struts\shocks and alignment\balance

question: i found the strut mount has some play, minor but a little wear: its where the small bushing in the middle contacts the rubber, there is @ 1/32" play i noticed it with the tire \ tie rod off and the strut in place and pulling back and forth on the strut: does this need replacement or am i going too far?[I'mg]http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploads14/000_00981225736112.jpg[/I'mg]
