my 05 altima ser lowered recently and hitting on 125000miles, so i think it is the time to do some maintenance.

left outer tie rod broken
right outer tie rod worn out
inner tie rod both very loose
front sway bar links both loose
rear sway bar links both broken
front sway bar bushings worn out
rear sway bar bushings look ok
rear shock bushings both worn out
the oem lower control arms looks ok but need the new ones anyway because
it is lowered by eibach prokit springs

overall after the alignment, ride quality and handling improve a loooooot!

good job! I'm following right behind ya I'm at 123xxx I just recently checked a lot of the things listed above and they seem to be in good working order but, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to replace em though :ohno: If you don't mind me asking how much did it cost you to replace all of those parts wise
