All of the fluids, that's part of an oil change! Diffs, t-case, transmission, ps, coolant, washer fluid. Grease idler arm for sure, if not others. Some of the few things on my oil change checklist!

Motorcraft is the only way to go with spark plugs

Motorcraft for the plugs. All fluids, clean the throttle body/MAF, maybe O2 sensors, PCV valve, check calipers/grease the slides, serp belt, and hoses, and check all vacuum hoses.
