    So I recently bought a 2003 Tacoma Prerunner 2wd V6. I bought it with 85,000 miles and I have no idea how the previous owner maintained his vehicle.

    After a fairly decent visual inspection, the truck seems to be in great shape. As soon as I get back in town, I will replace the timing belt and drain, flush and replace the transmission fluid, rear differential fluid, and the radiator.

    Does anyone else have any advice on further preventative maintenance for my Tacoma before I begin my long journey of modifications?

    Thanks and I am glad to be apart of the Tacoma World!
