Default What maintenance should I do at 200k?

I just hit 200k miles a week ago. I have done the following maintenance around 195k:
  • Head gaskets
  • Spark plugs, wires, coil pack
  • Upper exhaust gasket
  • Valve cover gasket
  • Valley pan gasket
  • Upper intake gasket
  • Throttle body gasket
  • New cold air intake hose
  • New breather hoses everywhere
  • New PCV hoses
  • Replaced larger pulley with ‘03
  • Timing cover
  • Water pump gasket
  • New front main seal
  • Oil sump gasket
  • 180° In-line thermostat mod
  • Brake boost assist line
  • Driver side C-pillar
  • Transfer case interlock solenoid removal
  • Replaced hood insulation
  • Coolant flush
  • New brakes (lines, hoses, rotors, pads, and calipers)
  • exhaust and O2 sensors

I have just done an oil change and changed the diff fluid. What other maintenance do you recommend? I plan on working on it over the next couple of weeks

thanks

Transmission and transfer case fluid/oil is always a good one if you aren't sure when they were last done.

You should do a dance at 200k and call it a good day!

Coat CPS cover with aluminum foil to prevent CPS failure.

3. Remove door panels and lubricate window regulators to prevent common failures.

4. Lubricate cargo door handle to prevent rust seizing

5. PCV mod to prevent oil leaks

6. Inline thermostat mod to prevent overheating

7. Replace all original cooling system plastic or rubber components to prevent overheating and head gasket job

8. Lubricate door straps to prevent popping

9. Coat rear frame to prevent rust

10. Remove and coat cowl panel with bedliner spray to prevent UV cracking

11. Wax exterior to prevent clearcoat fading

12. Lube front driveshaft and/or replace u-joint to prevent failure

13. Replace shifter boots - make your own with leather and superglue

14. Check idler bearings for wear and replace if necessary

15. Sand and recoat fender flares with bedliner.

Correct sunroof leakage and treat motors so they don't seize. https://landroverforums.com/forum/di...81/#post713877

Probably due for a set of new coil springs and shocks.

Cam, lifters, and rocker arms/shafts. Crank and rod bearings will also be shot.

Not typically. I have not seen a single high mileage engine with shot bearings. At 150k there is typically barely .0001 wear on the rod bearings. Both of mine over 225 run fine with good oil pressure, good compression and typical power. I had one with one wiped out cylinder but that was an anomaly.

Both mine were down to the copper (145k and 191k). I guess it depends on the PO.
