Replacing Hpop lines, what else?

I'm going to replace my hpop lines before they break and leave me on the side of the road. Is there anything else I should replace besides just the lines? Fittings or anything like that?
Also, should I replace the idler pulley and tensioner pulley while I'm at it? Truck has just a hair over 100k
Thanks!

Dieselorings.com has kits to rebuild the couplers at the heads and at the pump, or you can also just buy new fittings (they're not that much).

You don't have a lot of miles though. Kind of a toss-up, depends on how much work you want to do. It's not difficult.

I just replaced my hoses, and at the same time I replaced the fittings at the heads (since I didn't have time to get the rebuild kit).

I had just done the fittings at the pump when I re-sealed the entire pump.
