Just bought a 2001 with 250K miles, prevoius owner said he maintained it well but I would still like to do all the basics.

Change oil
Change tranny oil and filter
Change rear end fluid
Change air filter

Any other odds and ends I should do?

Change transfer case (ATF)
Change fuel filter
Change both front and rear differentials.
Test the batteries.
check the coolant.
The usual belt and hoses.
Add auxillary filtration/lift pump (this year is notorious for injector probs, this helps)?


From your other post. I've heard the Duramax is a 200k mile engine. BUT, there are alot of them out there with way over that! There is a thread on here called "high mileage contest". Check it out and you will see 250k is'nt all that much!

Enjoy the "beater", it may become your favorite!

oh, and being an Amsoil dealer, I would reccomend all synthetics! Might as well spend a few extra $ for piece of mind!
