Default Looking for some insite

Ok first my name is Jay, i am a new member here. I just got ahold of a 95 f150 4x4 AOD 302 with 180000 miles on it, with the handling package and all. I am not new to general maitnence on vehicles. But with this truck and the mileage, there are some things I would like to know

1st with the mileage on this truck what should I grease or inspect?

2nd bushings i should inspect?

3rd pretty much anything under the truck should I look at?

I know i probably need to rebuild the posi unit in the rear. I just replaced all components drum brake related. All wheel bearings inner and outter on the front have been replaced. Brake pads and rotors up front as well.

As for motor wise the only things ive replaced was the ign. coil, distributor, cap and rotor, plugs and wires, fuel filter, air filter. I am unsure of what else to check out motor wise. Maybe things that could be built up with carbon or sensors that could be looked at. Truck runs ok I guess, but its hard to tell if anything sensor wise or mechanical wise could have failed or is inproperly working beings when I bought the truck its run the same since. The distributor pickup did fail on me hence the replacement of the whole unit. All the rest of the engine parts i replaced i had already from my 86 f150 that is now a parts truck.

On the bottom side of the truck i can see the diff cover on the rear is leaking, and the trans is alittle wet on the underside. With the mileage so high I was curious how much it would cost to freshen up the whole drivetrain from front to back?

Sorry for posting a life story, just want a good head start to a hopefully long life with my new truck
