Wow - OCD maybe? That's a well researched list. The only things I would change would be throwing money away on synthetic oils. Get on the blackstone.com website and read about their take on them. I believe that if you use good quality dino oils in your transmission and engine and change them at appropriate intervals that you will come out ahead of synthetics with extended drain intervals. And if you aren't doing the extended drain intervals, you're really throwing money away.
