...wish it was money instead of mileage...:lol:
Any advice from the community on what I should take a look at/consider maintenance-wise would be appreciated. Below is a list of what I've had done (IIRC) since I bought her:
New rotors and serpentine belt (60k), full tranny flush (65k), spark plugs (90k), shocks (95k), tranny fluid exchange (95k), fuel filter (95k), rear diff rebuild/410 gear install (90k), oil and air filter changed when required. Will be doing coolant flush next month...mulling over having J-mod and cooling mod done next spring.
No leaks or issues occuring at the moment....it's been a great car thus far and hope to get another 100k out of her.

brake pads possible, air filter (didnt see cai in mod list), clean out the condenser, check the a/c lines for leaks, bulb check ? haha just throwing out all ideas.

Oh yeah, forgot that I had new brake pads put on about a month before Looseville (~ 90k). I don't have a CAI; the regular air filter was replaced at 95k, oil change will happen this weekend.
Thanks!
I'm at 114,000 and still on original rotors and back pads. I only changed the front pads because a buddy had new ones he didn't want. I drive with both feet and I do not baby the car, so unless you go all Sons of Anarchy on your brake pedal everytime you see it, yours should be fine. Other stuff, I get a flyer from my shop reminding me what is scheduled at what particular milage. Some I do myself, some I let them do just to throw them the business.

as long as you keep up with the maintenance theres not much you need to do that often. i personally change spark plugs every year because my car sits during the winter. i do like to change out my brake fluid and power steering fluid every other year because it just keeps things fresh. belts are also a cheap but important maintenance part. you seem to be in good shape.

Cool beans...I had to have the rotors replaced after I bought it; they were warped beyond 'fixin'. Can't complain and consider myself lucky since I bought the car via the internet and never laid eyes on it until I flew out and picked it up. New rotors and tires was all it needed right off the bat and it didn't blow up on me...had serpentine belt replaced as a pre-cautionary thing. >40k smiles later, I'm lovin' it....

I have guspechs old belt on mine, when he did his eaton swap, it had less miles than mine so I put it on. I reckon it may get replaced soon.
