Default maintenance time

I have been thinking its time todo alot on my truck as far as fluid changes so far I've done
spark plugs
fuel filter
air filter
oil + motorcraft filter every 3k
other than that not much has been done so the list of things I need todo with now 103k miles is
tyranny fluid change
transfer case fluid
rear and front diff fluid
coolant
and my power steering pump sounds bad so thinking about that with some additives my question is does anyone have anything to add or think I shouldn't do? thanks

Maybe change the coolant i think its only rated at 100k miles, heard some people say that changing the oil at 3K is a waste of money and do it at 5-7 K miles with motorcraft oil filter.
The trans oil i would leave alone unless it smells burnt or isnt pinkish

Everything listed above is good... And clean the MAF and throttle body as well... Check your tires air pressure.... Clean the battery terminals.. Sometimes it's the easy stuff that gets forgotten you know

Serp belt. Also, depending on oil you are using, you should be able to go a lot further than 3k. I do 5k on penzoil ultra.
