Default 2005 dodge durango tune-up tranny flush questions

I am going to tune up my wife's 05 dodge durango. It is a 4.7 with about 170k on it. Here are my questions.

What plugs are suggested?
Is it easy to do the tranny flush (it is a 4wd)?
What else should I change/check during this tune up?
I am changing the oil, which weight/brand is recommended (I live is Cali).

Any insight, tips or advice is well appreciated.

Well new guy
The spark plugs, i would champions. The transmission, don't flush the transmission. Because your transmission has a thermo block between the radiator and transmission. Replace both filters and add 7 to 10 qts of atf+4 and seal the pan with RTV sealer. By removing the filters. That will drain the fluid from the torque converter and pump.
