Default 90,000 Maintenance List to do!

I am at the 89,140 mile mark on my 2003 HSE about to be @ 90,000 miles.

Here here is my short list:

  1. Change the 8 quarts of ATF fluid. Leave Trans filter in this time.
  2. Do a Marvel Mystery oil engine flush at the next oil change interval...run it for 500 miles. Exchange a quart of oil for the bottle. Drop the oil pan. Clean it out. Use some unleaded or Kersene or somthing similar to clean the oil pickup. Install my new oil pan gasket from AB.
  3. Put on my new extended Stainless Steel brakes lines from AB, just because its cool!
  4. Change out the front & rear diffs with new gear oil. (Transfer case was done within 10k to fix a leak)
  5. Rotate my tires back to front, front to back every 10k
  6. Grease the front prop shaft.
  7. Coolant change was at about 84k... Its new!
  8. What else should I do. Open to all suggestions. Hit me up!

while wheels are off clean the brakes and inspect for leaks and such.

also under the hood disconnect all the electrical connections you can find one at a time and put a dab of dielectric grease on them. helps against the weather and water.

Speaking of Brakes & hubs: I caught my own mistake.
I did the front brakes about 1 year ago and shortly after I heard a grinding sound as I would come to a stop. I looked under each wheel from the inside. Took the tires off and didn't see anything. I was about ready to take it to Midas to see if they could find what the noise was. One night while messing around installing my driving lights and new steering dampener. I took another look. Before this I also replaced a worn out right wheel bearing. That same day I came down with a horrible stomach bug and had to stop working on my car till I felt better. Laying on the couch and running the bathroom sucked. I never get sick. Maybe once every 2 years. So I looked on the inside of the front right wheel. I had forgot to reattach the blue S-Shaped guide for the ABS sensor. It was dangling from the ABS line and slightly rubbing on the axle. Opps! I was able to remove one of the 4 large hub bolts, with my front wheels turned hard left and put it back. Guess it pays to keep looking, when its something simple!

While I have the wheels off rotating the tires. What is the procedure for adding this wheel swivel housing grease? Is it necessary at 90k @ $12 per wheel I'm only doing if it really needs it. I assume its only for the front left & right. Since the rear wheels have sealed hubs Do you remove/slide back the CV boot and look for a hole to squirt it in? Does anyone have any tips?
