The things that require close inspection are the brake lines. Even the "hard" lines along the frame rail and the rear axle. Don't forget there are 3 flexible brake line, L and R front and the one from the frame to the rear axle.
Make certain to get the front ball joints checked, or is it old enough to have the twin I-beam front axle ?
Splurge and get new shocks. You'll be amazed at how much better it will ride.
