On the upside James, those are relatively minor failures. A track rod end is a relatively simple and cheap repair, the UJ is more involved and labour intensive (not to mention the cost of it) but in the great scheme of things, still relatively minor. At least there were no gaping rust holes in the sills, brake failures, suspension problems and so on.
Also both of those failures would be difficult (not impossible) to detect at home, even with the right gear.
