If you've added accessories to the outside of your truck, you have at least basic tools and skills and that's about all you need.

Your tranny flush and rear differential are just as easy as an oil change in my opinion. Diffs and xfer case (if you have 4WD) are actually easier as there is no filter to change like doing engine oil. Take out the fill plug first, then the drain plug, drain oil, put drain plug back in, fill with new oil, put fill plug back in.

Coolant is not too much different, it's just that the drain ports on the engine are kinda hard to find and you have to mix the coolant, but other than that, it's simply a drain and fill operation.
