new struts what else do I need?

Buildmeanempire showed me a great deal on shocks and struts but what else i I need to replace up front with the struts? i would like to order it and have it on hand.I know there is a rubber boot up top and a plastic spring seat at the bottom that usually go bad but what else? Ced sells a strut mount and bearing kit but does that come with the tc bearing and does the mount actually g bad or just the bearing? And hopefully last will I need an alignment after im not going lower

I had to change a mount cause two bolts came loose but that's probably just him or miss and not required usually. Only thing I would specifically recommend would be end links if you haven't done them yet. Not to mention that you'll probably have to replace them since they're a bitch to take off without destroying them.
