I replaced the plugs changed oil; filter, went back to a stock thermostat, Coolant was two years old , dropped the trans pan and topped off.Replaced the Gas filter.
Am I forgetting anything?

How did the 60k mile plugs look (if they were original). Did you check to see how far the gap had opened up from wear? Just curious. I would have done a full pump 'n flush of the trans instead of changing the 1/3 of the atf capacity from dropping the pan. I have to pump and flush 2 of my cars when I get around to it... My mm just topped 30k and has the original trans fluid in it still, as far as I am aware.

Plugs had about 30K the gaps were slightly larger, than the tight gap I set he new ones.
trans fluid had 13K since it was rebuilt.
I was going to flush but the trans was rebuilt and I wanted to see what the bottom of the pan looked like.

I am rebuilding my trac loc with the F-150 spring and the Cobra carbon discs.
I'll get it replaced then.
I think it's good till 100K

I have been changing my diff fluid about every 1-2k miles, the # of times I've had it apart. LOL

I guess I'll change over power steering and brake fluid too.
