Just hit 70k

Alright, I just hit 70k miles! Bums me out lol not as new anymore [emoji12]

Any fluid changing should consider? I already did the front diff. How often do you guys change tranny fluid?

Albuquerque New Mexico and looking for a Grizzly!

I have about 400 miles before hitting 70 k! I have changed all fluids except for coolant. I would do trans fluid every 60k

Transfer case fluid change if you haven't already.

I'm at 108K unfortunately and I would have to say focus strongly on your transmission. Change all the fluids including your transfer case. My transmission blew out at 99K and transfer case fluid was black. It was very expensive and the mechanic said those trannys are common for that issue. Also if I may mention, it has nothing to do with miles wise but your radiator rubs against the metal body under the hood and will inevitably cause a crack on the top plastic part. I just had to fix my radiator today and found out that I was one of thousands with the same problem. Maybe put some rubber liner in between or something.

I'll definitely be adding something in there, perhaps a under carriage coating spray would do the trick?

After replacing the top of my cracked radiator , I split a piece of fuel line and put it on the core support .this will keep the core support from touching the radiator .

That could do the trick. I just patched my crack last night with JB Weld and a soldering gun. I'm going to fire her up today and see how well I did

T case t case t case! The longevity of your t case seems very dependent on your t case fluid. It gets nasty quick...I'm changing mine every year

i bought my truck with 75k miles or so... did all the fluid changes right away cause i had no idea what the previous owner(s) did or didnt do. coolant, brakes, diffs, trans, t-case, power steering... swapped my t-case for the 4:1 last year and flushed the diffs out again with royal purple. i agree with everyone here. driveline is the most important. fluid changes every 20k certainly wont hurt anything.
