Default Shocks and bushings

About 25 years ago I bought and replaced all body bushing had a arm bushings repressed with new ones. Leave spring bushings and never did my shocks. I want to know if the bushings go bad and what is a good quality shock. I prefer better than stock if possible not really into nos shocks. I seen blue ones on ebay but I don't want old Crusty ones. I want to good ones to.handle corners good. Also any thoughts on recommended brake cylinder. They probably dried up too. Probably original but should I just go to autozone for those. I need advice on breaking system too. I'm planning on draining the lines and running a brake cleaner solution through lines with an old fuel pump then blowing it out with air compressor. With carb cleaner work for this? I decided to have original brake booster restored and master cylinder labeled eb. Too thank for advice. I'll probably send next month

Bilsteins or Konis for shocks.

Bushings do go bad. Look for signs of rubber cracking.
