Default HELP -- Water pump replacement -- what else to replace while I am in there?

Replacing the water pump on my 2011 Acadia (same thing as Traverse engine and platform wise -- but this forum is better than the Acadia forums). Wondering what else I should replace while I am in there besides the pump, belt, and whatever pulleys are noisy. Thanks.

if the engine got hot due to lack of coolant, considered replacing the thermostat. the stat is 10years old and the system is drained. get an oem part.
