If you're in a colder part of the country use a pressure washer to keep the salt washed of the under-body, and change your tranny fluid and rear differential fluid if you haven't already done so.

i would also put in a better trans cooler....running over sized tires can make a trans not last as long

Unless you're pulling a heavy trailer or are doing major off-roading I wouldn't be too concerned about a bigger trans cooler - in addition to the stock trans cooler, the trans fluid on an '00 also runs through the radiator, and any extra heat generated by your 31's will be more than adequately dealt with by those two systems.
