Just a suggestion on where/how to start.

In your shoes, I might do the front and rear separately.

On the rear I would consider replacing the the spring plate bushings. Look at the ER rubber. That seems to be a popular choice. Clean up the spring plate cover. If your rear shocks are tired (mine were), you can get them revalved. Chuck at ER offers this as a service and he can digressively revalved them to match your t-bars. Take a look at your sway bar drop links bushings and replace if necessary. Those things are reasonable and quite do-able. Cleaning up the spring plates is not a fun job but it is not the worst job either.

After you do that then tackle the front. Look at control arm bushings, strut mounts, tie rods and ball joints. Again, look into re-valving your struts. Depending on your ride height preference you might want to look into something to address bump steer.

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.
