changing times- air filter, oil, and all the others..

Ok guys, I already know to change my oil every 3,000 miles. How many miles is recommended between air filter changes? I have heard just to take a look at your air filter to see how dirty it looks, and then decide whether or not to replace it. What other parts or whatever do you need to change to keep your engine nice and healthy? And how many miles between those changes?

Thanks guys, Landon

I check my filter once a month and usually change it,when holding it up in the air and cant see the sun thru the filter media.That or if its dirty.I change my fuel filter every 3rd oil change.I flush my radiator twice a year;summer,winter.Change the radiator cap every 4th flush.Flush the power steering every 15k miles.Flush the brake fluid every 15k miles.Drain the converter and trans pan every 15k miles.Rear differential was done at 80k miles.Front wheel bearings every 30k miles.Door hinges every oil change.Spray WD-40 in the door latches every oil change to keep the light switch lubricated.
