Hi folks, just bought an 07 5.4L a few months ago. It's almost at the 60k mile mark. The previous owner didn't have a maintenance recommendation manual, says he lost it, so what do you recommend I change at $60k. No fluids have been changed(except oil and filter), and the spark plugs have not been changed. I will not be doing the spark plugs myself since I've read horror stories on this site about the 3V plugs. Also, if someone has a pdf of the service recommendation manual, I would sure appreciate it. Thanks!

 

I would change all the fluids so that you know where your at...

Both diffs (could have been under water a few times, you never know)
tranny (might have towed a lot and over heated)
antifreeze (you can check your antifreeze to see what condition its in)
transfer case (if your doing everything else, might as well check/replace)
oil change (if you dont know when the last one was)

spark plugs--> some people will say that changing them at 60k will make it easier, others will say that its not worth the risk and you should save you $$ for the big change at 100k

new air filter

grease suspension

clean MAF sensor

Awesome, thanks for the feedback!

 

So was I reading that right? First tranny service is at 60,000 and first Diff service is 105,000???

 

What the maintenance schedule say?

 

Times 2.

With this kind of money budget, I'd just toss the existing truck and buy a new one!

 

You mean ya'll didn't know I was a high roller?
Anytime I use big numbers like that, it's a habit to put $ in front. Probably not the best habit!!
