New member with low mileage XLT

[Charlevoixboy]

Just purchased and enjoying reading the posts - great information! My Expedition is XLT model, 1999, with 23K miles. It has been in storage in a garage for three years. I have gone through the hoses, belts, have changed engine oil, antifreeze and wanted to ask about brake fluid, tranny oil and differential oil. Truck is in absolutely excellent condition and drives well. Any thoughts on maintenance I should consider?

being it has been sitting for a few years and hasn't been driven much I would change all fluids then follow the recommended maintenance schedule
hopefully you have all the manuals that came with it when new

also check your pads and rotors

Nice! Congrats wish mine had 23*** mines at 87*** just change the transmission fluid at 50*** and the diff and you should be set for another 100***

I'd check all the fluids, run it for a few days to a week and put a few miles on it, then just change all of them. Front and rear diff, trans fluid, brake fluid, power steering, oil, hmmmm, what else lol!

No need to take chances with such a great opportunity as with that!

Also don't forget to run some fuel system cleaner through and change the fuel filter.
