Default Post lift -inspections any thing to check after 100km

Lift is done
Alignment corrected (toe in and camber)
About 100km of misc driving

Any suggested checks beyond the ones I have on my list :
  • Shock bolts
  • Sway bar bolts
  • Wheel nuts
  • Driveshaft
  • Check the Rotoflex
Anything else ?

I have a small vibration transitioning between 40 and 45 mph nothing at speed, feels like the front end. It is very light, and brief. Likely unrelated smooth as silk at every other speed.

Drive shaft bolts, not just the drive shaft but the bolts, both ends, both sides.

I need to seek out those sloppy worn bushings myself....

Thanks guys, I have doubled checked everything and so far so good, I have some sway bar links and other bushings reaching end of life but nothing critical.
