Default oil change

Yeah this is a newbie question but does anyone have any suggestions on what all to check during an oil change? like air filters, tranmission and such? If it matters i have a 4.6 00' gt with about 22k miles. Thanks.

Look in your owners manual for maint. intervals. If you feel like it, crawl under and make sure The rear end isn't leaking, as well as the transmission. If they dont leak, dont bother. On second thought, make sure they were filled from the factory, then change them as schedualled. After that if they don't leak, they are fine.</P>
