I go about 7000 miles, run the extended oil filter from Wix, use valvoline synpower 5w30. I use turkey baster t draw out brake fluid and p/s fluid each time. once a year I drop antifreeze and refill with my 50/50 mixture.
check inline filter on p/s return line. once a year I change atf in manual tranny. |

every 3,000 miles engine oil/filter change (which is about every 6 months, its down 1/2 qt by then and the color of the oil is getting fairly dark by that time) every 2 years i change trans & transfercase oil, i use pennzoil sycromesh fluid in the manual trans, mobil 1 sythetic atf in t/c, differentials i changed at 100,000, did rear one again last spring at about 140,000 when i replaced the axleshaft seals. antifreeze- every 4 years, power steering-changed it when i replaced a both lines at around 100K (pressure line rusted and leaked), brake fluid-changed it about 90k when line to rear axle failed and needed replaced. brakes-as needed, seem like front are about every other year, rears ive done once since ive owned the truck. grease front end-twice a year, when changing from winter to summer, or summer to winter tires. front axle service-every 2-3 years i pull apart the front axle, check spindle bearings, u-joints, wheel bearings, just generally make sure things are in good shape & grease bearings, replace wheel seals, put some 80w 90 in manual hubs and that lubes them good. wax body twice a year, usually early spring & late fall. every time i change wheels (twice a year) i adjust rear brakes, my self-adjusters (just dont) thats about it, i do check all fluid levels very regualrly, have to keep a close eye on the front diff during the winter as pinion seal has started to leak.
