Welcome back! I imagine the axles would be pretty quick and easy for a shop to replace. They're not too bad to do yourself, but the bolts holding them to the front diff are 12mm 12-point, so make sure you have a 12-point impact socket before you get into it. I rebooted my old axles and swore I'd never do it again--there must be some trick to getting them apart that I didn't know, because good lord those things fought me. I've read that the OE axles are usually better than whatever reman crap is out there, but after the time and aggravation of re-booting, I might roll those dice. Looks like you highlighted the sway bar end link (very easy, probably needs the bushing that holds the swaybar to the frame too), upper and lower ball joint (not too bad, thankfully Nissan didn't rivet them in like some makes do) and tie rod end (also easy). It'll need an alignment afterwards, so any other front end work it needs, you might as well do at the same time. If you haven't done the strut rod bushings yet, they're probably due too, and may require some welding.
