Default 100k= mile tune up

My 93 fox hatchback is about 800 miles shy of the odometer turning over to 100k.
I was curious as to what I could do to her, tune up wise, to make sure she lasts another 100k miles. Obviously I swap the oil and filters and such but was wondering if there were any necessary or recommended tune ups i should be doing at this point. Thanks.

Now would be a good time to change oils/fluids like the transmission fluid and axle oil if you have not recently. Don't forget the fuel filter.

Just 100k?

My '88 just turned over 200k a month ago...

Can someone say "worn engine"?

Other than the obvious oil change, I did my 100k at 95k (only at 96k now) and did fuel filter, pcv, plugs wires, cap rotor, coil pack, flushed and filled radiator. Will probably do transmission at 100k when I reach it.
