what do you recommend at 60K miles service?

08 Hilux Surf

I have '08 V6 SE and would like to hear your recommendations for my next service work at 60K miles. Normal driving(50/50 city & freeway), occasionally drive in 4WD, and no towing done... Always changed the oil every 5K miles with dealer's synthetic oil, and replaced the spark plugs with Denso when it was around 38K by myself. (changed air filter & cabin filter a couple times too.) What do you guys recommend to replace & check now at 60K miles?

not 100% sure about the surfs but normally at my dealership it depends on your fluids. every 30k miles change trans case fluid and the fluids in the front and rear diffs if they use conventional fluids. 90k miles for synthetic fluids. 30k miles for platinum plugs. 90k miles for iridium plugs. Alignment about once a year if you feel it pulling as you drive. Engine air filter and Cabin air filter if they are dirty. 90k is always going to be one of the biggest services because Toyota suggest flushing all fluids along with some other work depending on the motor. Talk to a service adviser at your local dealership if you're not sure about your fluid types.
 
I just did a 60k service on my truck and would also suggest taking a look at your serpentine belt and power steering fluid. I replaced both at 60k along with the spark plugs (30k service interval) and standard service items like oil, filter, air filter (if req'd) and greased the driveline. I replaced all 3 diff fluids with mobil 1 at 30k so I probably wont readdress that messy affair until 90k.
 
Thanks guys. I agree on the fluids, and thought it was time to change trans case & front/rear diffs. I'm not exactly sure on the type(conventional/synthetic) of fluid, but I'll check around. Didn't think about the serpentine belt & power steering fluid, I'll take a look at the belt. Thanks again!
