Default My Truck Just Hit 30K.... What Next ?

I own a 2009 Silverado LT with a 5.3L, that I bought back in Sept 08. The odometer just hit 30K. Is there any service I need to do to my truck ? Besides the usual oil changes, rotate tires, wheel alignment. The only mods i have are a k&n filter and a 2.5 true dual exhaust with 40 series flowmasters. Any info will be helpful

I would drop the trans pan and change the filter and fill it back up with about 5 quarts of dex VI. This fluid is long life, but the filter still gets dirty. I like doing this every 25-30k. Also I would check all fluid levels, coolant, power steering, and while your there the washer fluid. Also if it were mine I would consider flushing the brake fluid, and ps, especially if it looks dirty. You could even check the level in the rearend, (front too if its 4wd).

I did a pan drop of my trans. But I also added a servo around that time too because I was getting my tune soon so I wanted to add all the little things I could.

Meh, I'd do that around 100k, really no point in changing it so early.
