well hit 105k miles. Tune up!
in addition to the oil, plugs, tranny service listed above don't forget
Differentials
Throttle Body
EGR Valve
Belt
Coolant flush
Brake fluid
check brake pads and rotors
check your steering rack
check ball joints
there is probably more, but I can't think of it at the moment

straight from the maintenance logbook that came with my truck to be done at 102,000 or 102 months...
change oil and filter
lubricate outer tie rods 2500/3500 4x4
lubricate drivetrain/ steering/ suspension fittings
lubricate front drive shaft fitting 2500/3500 4x4
flush and replace engine coolant if not replaced at 60,000
rotate tires
check spare tire for proper inflation and correct storage
check transmission fluid
check coolant level/ hoses/ clamps
inspect exhaust system
inspect brake hoses
inspect drive belt
inspect cv joints

So my plan right now is to just:
change plugs
engine oil
serpentine belt
clean throttle body
airfilter
When i bought the truck off my uncle at 70,000 i replaced the radiator including the hoses and coolant, had the transmission oil changed and new filter, rear end oil changed, i replaced the tie rod ends with moogs last month. Im just a broke teenager so the necessary things need to be done and the others will just have to wait.
Also, when changing the tranny oil, is it possible to just drill a hole in the bottom of the pan to drain the oil instead of handling all that oil while removing the bolts? I would have a new pan ofcourse with a drain plug. That's what they do with semi truck oil filters so i though it may work.
