service prior to Portuguese trip.

[wobbly]

I am planning to service the Prado prior to the planned off road trip in portugal.

I normally change the oil, oil filter, air filter and fuel filter every 6000km.

I changed the rear diff fluid after the floods, havent done the front as what came out of the rear diff was very clean, probably better than what I put in, so havent bothered with the front as its fiddly!

Going to do the atf fluid.

Do the props need greasing, not sure if they have grease points on the joints?

Is there anything else I need to consider?

I changed all the discs and pads a few months back, still have the osf cv joint to do.

What have I missed?

Cheers

Always grease propshafts after deep wading. What is the age and colour of the brake and clutch fluid. Also look at power steering fluid, cam belt, coolant and fan belts. When did you last check on the starter and generator? Check rear brake shoes ---if you have rear discs, check h/brake shoes. Check exhaust and mountings. Lubricate all doors. Check batteries and all lights.
