recommended repairs while doing brake job? 89 f350 4x4

Hey guys I'm going to be replacing the front brakes on my 89 f350 I already ordered ebc greenstuff pads and bendix rotors, will be replacing calipers as well. I figured might as well replace wheel bearings so i ordered up some timken outer and inner wheel bearings and races.

Is there any other things that you suggest I change out as a pm or what are things to look out for ?

Let me know what you guys think or am I jumping the gun by replacing the bearings. I bought the truck a little over a year ago and has needed little repairs here and there but overall been a good truck. I have noticed the truck has a slight thump when coming to a stop not sure what it could be.

Thanks in advance for the input.

Be sure to pull the spindle and grease the spindle bearing and replace the spindle seals. Might check kingpin bearings and repack them also. I think the 89 was still kingpin. Check axle u joints, tie rod ends while you are doing front end.
