Coolant is every 5 years if you use the OEM stuff. Tranny and diff fluids can go longer, but I changed mine at 30,000 miles. (Amsoil Universal ATF for the tranny and SVG 75W-90 synthetic gear lube for the diff)

I just had mine changed at 50k. My tranny was starting to leak a bit after sitting all winter so I took it to a local trans shop they flushed it, new fluid, filter and pan gasket and a bottle of Lube Guard additive for only $110. Wasn't worth it for me to jack it up and burn my hands on the exhaust while filling it up.
Trans runs about 10 deg. cooler now and the leak is gone.
