Default 1967 88" Maintenance

Thanks for all of your help on this post and other posts in the past.

First of all I am no mech, I do know a little bit, but that could get me in trouble. I have owned a couple of old series 2a, but finally have one that I can actually drive and use as a daily driver. I would like to know all of the maintenance that I should do to it and when (things like greasing and oiling). I know it probably varies with certain things, but I really love this thing and want it to last as long as I do. I live in the mountains in colorado and plan on driving this rig 6,000 to 8,000 miles a month. If someone could give me a good website that breaks down maintenance that should be done or if someone could fill me in on what should be done, that would be great. Thanks

Hi British Pacific has a page dedicated to maintenance, fluid levels, timing and commonly needed replacement parts.

No, no, 600 to 800 miles a month. Wow I would not have a rear end if I sat in that rover for 6,000 to 8,000 a month.

Several places sell copies of the owners manuals. I'd suggest getting one.
