Anything I'm forgetting? Preventative maintenance at 200k miles...
About to turn over 200k miles on my 2003, V6, 4x4. I want this thing to last until 400k, so I've been giving it a nice refresh. Here's what I've done so far. Anything else I'm forgetting?
-New front rotors and pads
-New spark plugs (didn't do the wires...does that matter?)
-Drain and replace tranny fluid
-Drain and replace both diffs and transfer case fluid
-Grease all zerks
-Drain and replace power steering fluid
-Drain and replace radiator coolant
-New air filter and cabin air filter
-Clean MAF sensor
-Replace burnt out dash bulb
-Fix clunking sway bar bushing
-Replaced leaking CV boot
-Obviously rotate tires, change oil, etc.
What else? I'm at a loss after all this... Thanks!

Clean throttle plate....make sure to have someone open it by pressing the pedal, some electronic throttle systems can be damaged from manual operation

It may be time for new O2 sensors, check wheel and hub bearings, and possibly fuel pump so you don't end up stranded

Fuel pump and o2 sensors sound like expensive maybes!

X4 = 240$ plus labor that is not necessary unless MIL is on with a 02 sensor code

Thanks for the ideas, guys. I may take a shot at the steering rack bushings too. Things seem a little loose up there....

Fuel Filter might be a good idea.

Brake fluid might be a good idea if it's never been changed. Maybe even go around and put a light coat of grease on the door/hood hinges. Especially the doors you don't use very often.
How long since you replaced the serpentine belt?
One of the gas charged shocks on my hood is worn out. It's not something I'd replace just to replace, but they probably have a limited lifespan.
