@ ~jeff,

Replace all fluids, get the CV boots done before the bearings get contaminated by road grit and change oil every 5000ish miles.
There’s a ton of “while you’re in there” work. You could go broke, nuts, or both trying to get ahead of it all.
Deal with repairs as they come, you’ll never avoid all possibilities issues.
