What to do while skid plates are off?

I took my BudBuilts off to put a new AT cooler on. I have new bushings for my sway bar and steering rack in the mail. I want to either flush or change the AT fluid (which would you recommend I have 17*,*** miles)
I was thinking about greasing up the drive shafts and such, what else would you recommend doing so I don?t have to put the skids on and off to do each thing?

Replace the front diff oil if it's due or nearly due.

Have a good look at everything, make sure it all look the way it should...
Maybe do some cleaning under there.
Check the torque on everything?

Just some ideas...
