Default 150k mileage checkup suggestions?

Anyone have any obvious suggestions for an H2 checkup at the 150k point? Already had/fixed the ex manifold issue. Just took the truck back from an employee and dont think he's done much maintenance.

Thanks ...

I would do, front and rear diff service, trans filter change, have the front end and u joints inspected. That should be a good start.

Default Bushings

More of an item than inspection. If you have not done so yet I would start replacing all the bushings in the suspension and Steering. You will be pleasantly surprised.

Thanks .... adding to my list ....

I seem to have a lot of corrosion on the underside. More than I would expect. I have a 3 year older dodge that exhibits none of this. The dif cover in the back needs to be replaced for example and the transmission lines are pretty rusted up. Is this typical of the speciesor just mine?

Check and/ or replace all brake lines. If you have rust your brake lines are probably in sad shape.

Hey - I'm working with my mechanic on your bushing suggestion. Is there a good source for a kit on this or do you need to buy them all individually?

Hoping to save some time ...

Thanks ...
