    Is there a thread that talks about suggested high milage maintenance items?

    When should I change Trans, Diff, Fuel Filter, etc...?

    What do you high milers out there do?

    I have 120k on my Taco.

    I replaced fuel filter at 90,000 miles and it was dirty.

    The filter is a real pain in the ass on these trucks.

    diffs and trans should be done every 60k or so.

    timing belt and water pump every 90k

    Grease those u joints every oil change too.

    Spark plugs every 60k

    I think that's about it.

    You must be talking about the 2.7, not the 3.4, like the OP has.
