15k Service

[ciaz]

Anyone done or nearing theirs? How much did it cost? I'm looking at the Schedule B - 6 Cylinder 15k Service sheet, and there are some additional "optional" maintenance items, including replacing the front/rear diff oil, and tightening nuts on chassis and body. Any thoughts?

if you get the service at the stealer, they check for those items.
I have a 4th Gen and just got my 30k done at my dealer (yes, not stealer).
They only changed the rear diff oil for the first time, all else was good.
FWIW, They usually recommend Fuel Injection Cleaning and TB Cleaning as teh most typical upsell. I'll pass on those for a long time.

On the drive shafts(propeller) there are 3 grease fittings(aka zerk) that need lubed with a grease gun or equivalent. One on each spider bearing(aka universal)and one on the shaft itself for extending retracting.

Lube 1 , 2 and A

The prop or drive shaft is lubed at the U joint and connections at the diff and tranny.

But propeller shaft does sound out of place if that's what you're getting at.
