If you are doing all of this yourself, so that labor is not an issue, get IPD sway bar end links, spring seats for an XC90(very robust and still fit), front struts if needed, and a tower brace for the engine compartment.

If you want to replace your still good springs, I would go IPD progressive. They are nice in normal driving, think happy wife, and firm when you decide to go auto crossing.

After replacing the struts, an alignment is needed. The alignment shop can tell you if the control arms are a mess. It is not age, rather pot holes that do them in.
