Default Advice on ACE during 60k Service

Greetings all,
Preparing to do Disco Mikes 60k service, but want to gather all parts, fluids, etc to do it all at once. I am only slightly mechanically inclined, so certain things (ie..adding greaseable joints to the shaft) have to be done by a mechanic. My question is: When conducting the PS Flush and swapping to Synthetic PS Fluid, is there anything I can do to the ACE system? Can it be flushed, or are there any additives that may keep it in better shape for longer? Appreciate any feedback.

Sorry- forgot to include this: 2000 Disco II

You do the exact same thing to the ACE as you do to the P/S. Plan on 8 to 9 quarts of P/S fluid and one bottle of Lucas, Stop Leak split between the 2 systems when topping them off.
Send me your number if you have any questions and I'll call you.

Do not use synthetic PAS / ACE fluid, only mineral oil in those.
