60K Miles Maintenance & Replacement Parts

Hello guys, just purchased a used 2006 MCS and its 60K+ Miles on it. Car is bone stock and I would like to do a few maintenance on it before it hits the road again. Can you folks give me advice on what to replace on the engine or drivetrain before it goes out on me? IE Bushings, Pumps, Motor mounts, Tensioner etc. etc. One thing for sure that the brake pads are worn out and I am replacing that soon.

I've been reading a lot here for the past few days and they are all very helpful. Just trying to keep it one one thread so I can just go back to it quick.

Thanks in Advance!

Inspection 2 is usually due at 60,000 miles... inspection 1 is at 30,000, is the smaller of the two....they then alternate....
The listings of thr items in the inspections are posted in a few places...inspection 2 is basicly all inspection 1 items PLUS extra stuff....

you mentioned a lot of the items in your first post, crank pulley is important to check at this mileage as well especially 05-06
