Reverse fluch with thermostat removed (before you install the new one)
Starters and alternators can be rebuilt by acquiring the relevant bearings, bushing and brushes from a bearing supplier and / or auto elec joint. Hunt around as bearing prices can be cheap to the utterly rediculous.
With a multimeter you can really only test continuity of individual componentry within each unit, easier to demonstrate to you than type, or maybe google it.
If they were working fine before, leave them alone.

You asked what else, wellllll, that's something else.
Clutch master is much easyer to remove and then kit out with manifold off.
Starter--- strip, clean, re-grease, reassemble.
Alternator--- strip clean re-grease or replace bearings check brushes etc.
Just food for thought.
All back yard work I recon.
And knowing your bus inside out is always going to pay off, somehow sooner or later.
