Default need some advise

i have the transmission out of a friends 2002 corvette and while its out i was wondering what else he should replace the car has about 85,000 miles

i was thinking the following:
1: shocks with c6 z06 shocks
2: torque tube bushings with stock OEM one's
3: upper and lower a-arm ball joint's
4: clutch LS7 with new flywheel and remote bleed system
5: pilot bearing? i have heard mixed reviews on if this should be replaced or not
6: new o-ring between diff and transmission
7: anything else you guys/gals can think of thanks!

Do the whole kit for the tt bearings, bushings, and slinger washer. You can get the kit from RPM transmission.
