I just bought a 2003 Excursion 6.0L Power Stroke Engine with 106k on it . I have already changed oil and trans fluid along with the filters . I am also going to do a flush on the radiator as well . What other things should I check and maintenance ? How important is to change the rear end fluid and dope ? I'm a first time Diesel owner so all the advice is much appreciated .

It certainly wouldn't hurt it at all to change ALL the fluids, including the brakes. As long as you're doing the radiator, do the t-stat & hoses too. How about fuel filters?

Its also a good idea to add your vehicle and any/all mods to it in your signature. If kept up to date, we have less questions to ask trying to answer any you might have.
