Just change the usual fluids. Trans fluid / filter, oil use motorcraft FL820s filter and your choice of oil just keep The brand consistent. Walmart sells the filter for about 4.50 and is usually has the best price on oil. There is an excellent write up on servicing the transmission by Mark K. As for the rear end most people change that every 100k miles. The transfer case is every 30,000 miles along with the transmission service. I wouldn't worry about anything going out. Most people get 200,000+miles out of these trucks without problems

What most people said already. IF no history is known;
flush the coolant
oil/filter change (stick w motrocraft 820s filter)
transmission fluid drain, filter change, fill (there is a good write up to do an extensive drain that gets most fluid out.)
differential fluid change
additional:
brake fluid flush
fuel filter change
air filter (inspect/replace)
I would read the codes too, sometimes the check engine won't come on but there are still codes. borrow the reader from a car parts store.

Also, you can find the code somewhere inside the dash. See thread.
