150K Tuneup Questions

I have a 99 4Runner 4WD Limited. I bought this 4Runner @ 82K miles. It had the timing belt changed at 60K miles. I have done nothing to it except change oil, and it now has 145k miles.

I would like to do a full tune up (it has started missing a bit every now and then). Can anyone recommend the things I need to do. I will do most things like change plugs/wires, etc, and will have the timing belt and water pump changed by a professional.

I am just looking for some sort of list I can start doing and check off.

Also, anyone know a great Toyota mechanic in the Raleigh, NC area?

Thanks for any help!!

ALL fluids: Differentials, xfer, tranny, coolant, check steering fluid/brake fluid.

Clean throttle body/MAF sensor. Lube all Zerk fitting underneath. Check, clean or replace PVC valve. Check catalytic converter muffler for rust through spots.

Change air/fuel filter. How are your shocks/springs? Check rear bearings/axle seals. When were your rear wheel cylinders changed last, if ever? You can do without some of these, but i just started listing the things I have addressed since i turned 160K this summer.

P.S. I have a 2000 SR5 Runner w/ 169K and only 'major' thing so far has been the timing belt/water pump.
 
And if you have rear heat check your lines running to your heater core, im replacing my at 146k since i was messing around by them and they decided to break open from the rust. oh yeah they are $97...not bad.
