My 1997 Explorer just turned 180k last week and I am looking into a 180k mile service is if there is anything I need to service on?

The following has been serviced recently:

144K - new radiator and at 165k new t-stat housing gasket due to leak... so I assume coolant should be good for now or should I go ahead and flush it?

Tune up and new coil pack was done at 144k miles and should be good.

Transmission serviced at 150k, and I plan to get it service at the same time with 180K PM service.

Brakes were last checked 6k miles ago with 8mm front and rear at 6mm, should be OK.

173K - Changed air and fuel filter.

Just had a new axle bearings and front bearings 3k miles ago.


Is there anything that needs serviced that I need to do? Does PCV valve need replaced as maintenance or something? I'd like to keep it in top shape as long as I can as it still running good.

Thanks! :)
 






Plugs, wires, o2 sensors, PCV valve is a good weenier to replace, make sure to slop some injector cleaner and engine treatment into the gas tank. Also check the air filter, and alignment...ok, im getting of topic...lol
