Default 100,000 mile club

my 2001 disc 2 just hit 100,000 miles this week.

i am wondering if there is anything that i should do to my truck to keep it going. Here is a list of stuff i have already fixed or replaced:

New 02 sensors
New mass air flow sensor
Replaced hood spray nozzles
Replaced power steering pump and hoses
Replaced thermostat and associated hoses
updated the radiator hoses with new mod
new battery

Is there anything else i should check out?

Definitely major service, before it's to late. Change all drive fluids and perform a full inspection and repair any and all leaks. Much more needed than that, consult your Rave Manual.

Follow the major service list I posted at the top of this section and now that you have cleared 100,000 miles, start doing the majors every 20,000 insted of 30,000 miles.
Have you rebuilt or replaced your front drive shaft yet?

Nothing different from before, just changed your fluids and filters as scheduled.

Oil pressure manual test if you have not added your own oil PSI gauge

Begin more frequent inspection of water pump (wobble) and fan clutch (spins more than 1 revolution when spun by hand and released).

Strongly consider upgrade to an Ultra Gauge to keep an eye on some things (like temperature) more closely. The UG also has U-set'em alarm points, so you can call attention to something even if you are distracted by a good oldie on the radio, breaking news that all incumbent politicians are not seeking re-election, etc.

At some point you may want "heavier" fluids in transfer case and diffs, like 85W140.

Don't forget your coolant flush and change on your schedule.

Start a fruit jar (budget) for larger repairs that may eventually come - head gaskets, etc. But with reasonable care, you'll easily make another 100,000.
