Did I miss anything?

Hi guys,
First off I'd like to say what a great site this is and I've learned a ton over the last few days since I came across it.

I picked up a 98 Ranger last week with just over 100,000 miles on. It has the 2.5 and a five speed, two wheel drive. There were no maintenance records with it, so to start fresh I replaced plugs/wires, airfilter, fuel filter, timming belt, main belt, pvc valve and an oil change on the engine and trans. This weekend I plan to flush and change the coolant. Is there anything else that should be done at 100,000 or that I should keep an eye out for?

Thanks.

BTY, my blower works on all settings and I have a full set of dash lights now thanks to the tech library!!

Welcome,

I'd recommend changing the fluid in the rear too. I recommend it to all my customers around 100k. I personally change mine at least once a year, it's cheap, why not. Also check and/or change your shocks.

Best of luck with your new truck.

Also look at the rear leaf spring mounts. I bet the forward ones are ok but the rear ones, that the shackles attach to may be rusted out or on their way to being rusted out.

check your u-joints for excessive wear, and battery level.
