Welcome to iRV2.

Large drain pan , lots of rags and kitty litter .

Engine oil change is no different than a car or truck .

I'll have a quick look for any servicing info on the Allison 1000 series fluid changes .

EDIT : I knew I had it somewhere .

Flush brake oil too.. and change diff and p/s oil and I believe you have a p/s filter too.. don't forget coolant needs changed every 5yrs.. no matter the miles..
Good luck and let us know what you did and maybe better members then me will help you
It's all just like light duty cars and trucks.. same eng and trans you will find in Chevy c2500.. so go online or into auto parts store and grab a book for c2500 same yr as rv.. it will give you specs and help a lot.. oh inspect plugs and wires closely.. they burn them a lot.. add insulation boots to plug wire boots.. think of chassis like .. c2500 pickup bolted to big frame with house on it and that will help.. many of us find same parts work and big difference is price..
