Those are wear items, you replace them when they are worn out or damaged

There is no manufacturer recommended replacement interval for the parts you listed. They get replaced when they wear out. Also, the insurance company is only going to replace the parts damaged by the accident, nothing else. Be thankful they didn't total your 11 year old truck just to get it off the road! Hope that helps! Jim
