I'm just about to hit 64K on the rig and I need to take it in for some dealer and non dealer service. I bought the car with 42k and have done nothing but routine self oil changes.
This is the service I was thinking of scheduling:
Dealer:
1. Transfer Case Fluid Change
2. Transmission Fluid Change
3. TCM update (I have an 06 and autostick doesn't self shift)
4. Tire rotation :)
Non-Dealer:
1. R1 Drilled/Slotted Rotors
2. Satisfied or other pads.
3. OIL CHANGE!!!
4. Brake Fluid Change
5. New battery!
Is there anything else that I'm missing and/or don't need??? I haven't had any (knock on wood) ANY problems yet at this mileage so I want to make sure my rig stays as reliable as it's been.

I'm Going to convince my dad that I need rotors at this mileage so I'm gunna get those.
Didn't know about the front/rear oil thanks.
And the battery has been fine but dying rather quickly if I leave the stereo on without the car on. I've jumped it like 4 times in the last few weeks cause of that.

Yeah, the brakes are easy, the rotors are a b!tc& to remove.
Spend $29.98 on the 12V impact driver at Wally Mart. Makes pulling the caliper bolts much easier.
You will be also able to remove the tires like a NASCAR pit crew.
I also got a 3lb drill hammer at The Home Despot to beat the rotors loose with. With the short handle, it worked well in the tight quarters you will be working in.

What does convincing your dad have to do with you getting brakes?

^^^^^cause I spent 1200 on tires not too long ago and am still paying that off my credit card.
I don't have the extra cash for this service so I'm asking my dad to help me out.

^^^^and also because my dad is a non-car guy almost rickg type person when it comes to Mods and would try to get me new more expensive OEM rotors as opposed to better cheaper after market ones :) he just doesn't understand mods he's the type of guy that wants a luxury car leaving it all stock.

1. Transfer case fluid change
2. Transmission fluid change plus filter, just have them drop the pan and replace the filter and fill back up with new fluid do not do the flush.
3.Front and rear axle fluid change
4.Grease caliper pins
5.Flush and replace engine coolant (Mopar Radiator Fluid Only)
6.Have Fuel injectors cleaned at rail
7.Check intake manifold for deposit build up and clean if needed
8.Check alignment
9.Check all struts/shocks for leakage
