As My 92 Wagon turns 200K 200 1992

Hello Board,
Posting for thoughts on what items should be looked at and replaced as a 240 turns 200K. This car looks decent and runs well, thinking I'd like to make it last awhile. I have some ideas, would like to hear board wisdom.
Thanks.

Go figure.

    Every 100K
    I repack the front wheel bearings.
    Change rear axle fluid.
    Manual Trani Fluid change.
    At 150-200 the Alternator Brushes may start to give you a problem. I changed mine at 150K before I had a Charging issue.

    That's about it for the big Rollover. All the rest I consider regular upkeep and maintenance.

    I would replace the timing belt, as I normally do for the 50k service. While you're in there you can check the front oil seals and water pump.

    More than likely, you have probably replaced some of these parts such as ball joints and tie rods but they may need it again.

    Check these out, but don't necessarily replace:

    All bushings
    Steering rack
    Steering rack boots
    Steering shaft u-joints
    Inner and outer tie rods
    Ball joints
    Sway bar end links
    Fuel sender (rust)
    Engine mounts
    Front engine seal leaks
    Rear main okay?
    Leaks from flame trap and/or oil separator
    Tranny mount
    Rear tranny seal and bushing (any leaks there?)
    Cracks in tranny cooling lines - if slushbox
    Struts and shocks
    Fuel pressure regulator
    Radiator
    Radiator hoses
    Master cylinder
    Emergency brakes

    I'm done. I'll let someone else add to this list....:)
