i thought u change oil every 3000 miles...

i dont bother with mine...it leaks then burns 1 liter every 1000-2000 km's for me anyways. stupid valve cover...

Its 5K on the newer ones.

 

[snomaker321]

3-5k depending on how anal you are about it. I actually looked and it was done more like 2000mi ago on april 28th. I still think im gonna do it.

Whats involved with changing the rear end oil? Should i flush my radiator and put new fluid in or is that unnecessary? Probably should do the fuel filter too i suppose

Yeah I would do radiator flush too. I would change basically every fluid in the truck. Trans fluid and rear diff as mentioned, front diff and transfer case. The engine oil can wait another 1000 miles.

Air filter also.

good call, almost forgot about that. hopefully i'll get to all this this weekend.

All of the above and a fuel filter wouldn't hurt either.

Truck is really new but maybe take a look at the plugs & wires?

It is recommended that you should try to contact your mechanics. Some of maintenance advice will provide you. You should always check your tires, engines, battery and other parts of your truck.
