If youve not done any of that, I would do it or get it done.
I believe thats about all you would need to do though. Check the radiator fluid before winter really hits?
Maybe run some injector cleaner through it?

I just turned over 60,000 miles on my 2002 KJ sport (3.7L). I was looking at my manual, and saw that using schedule B has a lot of maintenance I have not performed. I do not do a large amount of off roading, and a mix of highway and around town driving. I've had the ball joints replaced (for the second time only a month ago- for the recall, they were in good shape). I am religious about changing the oil (5-w30) every 3000, and do it myself. I am not comfortable or have a big enough garage to do a lot of the maintenance. I am thinking of going to my dealership (which has been very good- and reasonable- believe it or not) to have the more involved maintenance done. Any advice on the following maintenance recommended for 60k miles? -spark plug replacement -PCV valve -Front and rear axle fluids ( I assume they mean differentials) - Automatic transmission fluid - drive belt - transfer case fluid Thanks in advance for your help. |

If you have the means and place to do the oil, you could handle the rest of that work yourself to. It would certainly save you a bundle of $ and give you some real quality time w/ your Jeep. I would definately do the items you listed though. Switch to some good synthetics and extend out your service intervals while you are at it.
