Nothing requires anything special.

A broken sway bar or a missing sway bar has nothing to do with the repairs that they say are needed.

Tie rod ends are very common and same with control arm bushings. New control arms are 40 each for dorman parts and new tie rod ends are 10-15 per side or so. New control arms come with all bushing and new ball joints.

Spend $120 in parts, 2 hours of your time and then get an alignment.
