Basic upkeep tips

[88Wrangles]

So I have this presentation in a class tomorrow and I am supposed to talk about basic upkeep tips for automotives . I am kind of drawing a blank right now, so what all can you guys think of

So far I have: Change Oil
Coolant/antifreeze
Differential Fluid
Transmission Fluid
Transfer Case Fluid
Air/Fuel Filter
Tires-pressure/wear

	Transfer Case Mounted behind and driven by the vehicle transmission, the transfer case transmits power to the front and rear driveshafts in 4WD Jeep vehicles and offers high and low range.

washing and waxing, lubricate hinge pins, door, trunk and hood latches, and cleaning the interior.

spark plugs, plug wires, battery (and adding D.I. water), sensor replacements, 4" suspension lifts, v8 swaps, BFG's oh sorry, i got side-tracked

[currupt4130]

grease all u joints, sway and track bars, anything with a grease fitting, brake pads/calipers

Pull the poser offroad vehicles parts outta your grill every now and then.

Couldn't resist.

all fluids and filters.. that's been established...
oxygen sensor
ignition system: plugs, wires, cap/rotor, maybe coil
headlights are often overlooked... its not a bad idea to change them before they leave you with no vision
rotate tires
check alignment
check all suspension bushings/steering joints

Go thru what inspectors look at. Only ones not said that I could think of are signals, and brakelights. Check 'em make sure they work. Sucks to get hit from behind because you didn't know those weren't working.

Well, thanks for the help! I got full credit on it, so I think you guys covered just about everything. Last night, I was working on 2 big papers as well as this, so I was having trouble concentrated on something simple like this.
