50k maintenance

brown1 · Jan 19, 2017

so i am approaching 50k and going to do some maintenance for the first time of me owning the truck. i will be losing weight and tuning at the same time. my plans are to change oil and filter, fuel filter. i was going to drain trans fluid in pan and change filter too. so my question is how much fluid should i expect to replace and do i need a gasket? may splurge and have coolant flushed while i'm at it. i bought the truck with 40k and it shows 18k of trailer mileage. the trailer was a 43' toyhauler so the truck has worked.

I'd do the coolant flush when you ****** as you have to drain the coolant anyway.

For a pan drop, you'll need about 8-9 quarts. I'd add 6 and check from there. The gasket is reusable.
