93 XJ refresh

I’ve owned my XJ for about 7 years. I love it. For almost 28 years old she only has 179,000 miles. I’ve done my own work as far as repairs (steering pump, starter, water pump, wheel bearings, axle u-joints, tow hitch install, passenger side floor board front and back. I know I’m missing some things).
Rust is becoming an issue. Rockers are rotted bad. Cargo floor is starting to go in spots.
I’ve been contemplating buying a newer vehicle but the cost just doesn’t seem worth it for newer vehicles.
So, I’m leaning towards replacing things like bushings, aged suspension parts, and a new set of General Grabber AT2(X).
She still looks good stock and not looking for any mods that require extra parts and labor.
What suggestions do ya’ll have as far as replacing coil springs, leaf springs, suspension parts, etc as most are somewhat original as far as I know.
If I do nothing she’ll just get worse and the engine has a lot more to offer.
Thanks ahead
