D1 Baseline - Check My To-Do List

[onewhippedpuppy]

I've had my D1 for a few months now and have fixed the broken stuff, now I need to perform a good baseline to make this a vehicle I trust to drive anywhere.

Stuff that's been done in the last year: plugs, plug wires, thermostat, front wheel bearings, CV joints, lube in the transfer case and diffs, transmission fluid, radiator, water pump, coolant tank, anti-freeze, temp sensor, fan clutch, serpentine belt, and air filter.

Stuff that I'm planning to do: power steering fluid, brake bleed, fuel filter, O2 sensors, and coolant hoses.

So, what am I missing?

You failed to mention how many miles on or the year of your truck...mileage is a huge factor on servicing your vehicle.

....and your driving habits and conditions as well.

1997 with 105k, and I've only had it a few months. Previous owner didn't go off road, but it has signs that it has been off pavement at some point in the past.
