I know a few members here have more miles and some who don't may be thinking along the same line...looking for advice as to what IS and what IS NOT necessary at this stage of ownership...most of you know I have a Unicorn and maybe due to my care not to abuse my ride, she has treated me very very well...nothings broken, nothing to complain about...but a few things are lined up with a local pro...

  • Transmission flush and filter change, scheduled
  • Front/rear differentials, fluid replaced at 50K
  • Coolant flush? Fluid stays constant and color looks fresh...needed?
  • Brake fluid flush? Pads and rotor looks great with plenty of life left and smooth even wear at all four...needed?
  • HVAC working as designed

Any advice would be appreciated...thanks in advance...

Yeah, it looks like you are in the right direction

Oil in diffs,
Tranny
Coolant (may be the same color, but differences in science stuff. Electrolysis and stuff)
Maybe even spark plugs.

90k wow
I have 32k after 15 months

Yes, you're probably right about the coolant...will attend to that next...plugs were changed at 50k and looked pretty good then...

Anyone have looked into Ford's official service schedule? I guess I could do that later...

The motor is shot. Won't make it much longer. Needs to be replaced with a coyote?. It looks like your list has you on the right track.

Time to rebuild that motor...probably going to seize due to atrophy...
