01 z06 50k mile service
Anyone have any tips or suggestions for things that I should take a look at? I am at about 49000 miles right now so I figured I'd ask since the time is fast approaching.
My cluctch has stuck to the floor about 3 times or so..maybe a good idea to bleed it?
Thanks!

He said it was a dd until winter not during winter. Where I live it might snow once or twice but nothing bad. He might have never seen snow so it might not ever see salt. Plus it's a $20-25k car not a $70k car so it wouldn't be a huge deal if he did drive it in the snow.

Check the balancer. Most LS only get 50-60k miles before they start to wobble.
Rear end seals. Check for tiny speckles of oil all over the rear fascia. (replace both even though it's usually just the left one leaking... the right will be soon to follow)
Definitely suck out that clutch fluid. You don't need to bleed it, but you should put in new fluid and then do it again in a week or two. Read Ranger's clutch care post on CF.

I did the clutch thing last weekend...going to finish it up today.
What trans fluid and rear fluid should I use? (The trans says dextron 3, I assume any good dex 3 will work?)
I'll check the balancer. and rear seals as well.
