I replaced my control arm hydraulic bushings at 100K. The old ones were causing the car to feel unstable at high speeds. Even though they may look okay on the outside, the fluid is most likely gone from the inside. I would definitely replace those. Also, if your struts are original at 182K, they are NOT ok. Just because they pass the bounce test doesn't mean they're good. When the funds become available, I would go ahead and replace those as well. Sway bar links and tie rods also contribute to the overall steering feel of the vehicle. Hope this helps!
