Default Fluids!!! sensors

running a JK 011 60k mi. Dealership wants to change all fluids, trans, crank, diffs, on all my other cars I shied away from doing this at all unless there was a definate problem, do we have to do these changes? My last car was a 2001 chry 300m with 190,000 mi I replaced the tranny once at 70k no other problems what does anyone think???
Also do I really have to pay $600. for tire sensors to pass inspection?

Personally, I like to change the fluids you mention on a 30,000 mile schedule. So, I think you should do it. Don't pay to have it done if you can do it yourself. There's a huge savings by doing it at home.

What's the deal with the TPMS sensors? Why do they need work?

I swapped my 17 in rims for 18, didn't know when I bought them that the sensors had been removed, so the dealer wants $600. to replace them and match them to my jk. The 18's came off a rubicon

If you don't want the sensors installed, you can turn the system off, along with the warning, with a ProCal.

Or check and see how much Discount Tire would charge to install them.
