90K Ford Chassis Service July 31, 2013, 07:41:10 pm Yahoo Message Number: 141657My 2003 Ford E-450 V-10 LD now has just about 90K on the odometer. Service has been according to Ford's specs. Plus the serpentine belt was replaced at 42K along with the AC compressor, spark plugs were changed at 52K, new rear brake pads at 61K, new muffler at 78K, fuel filter and rear drive oil (synthetic) were changed at 82K. That's about it other than specified fluid changes and chassis lubes according to Ford's schedule. At 90K I plan on oil, oil filter and air filter changes, and replacement of the coolant and automatic transmission and brake fluids. Everything else in the manual seems to be per inspection (brake pads for example). I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions about other items that perhaps should be done now on a 10 year old chassis with 90K miles exhibiting no problems. All in all this has been one of the most reliable motor vehicles I've owned.Thanks.Terry2003 26.5'RB Gardnerville, NV
