Maintenance Items for 98 C230

Guys I am in the process of getting the following done for my 1998 C230 with 154k on the odometer. I had some questions as well:

1. Spark plugs: How many spark plugs do I need? Should I change the spark plug wires as well?

2. Valve Cover Gasket

3. Radiator Fluid Flush

4. Brake Fluid Flush

5. Oil Change

6. Front Shock Replacement

I have already had the fuel filter changed. The serpentine belt was changed at 87000 miles.

Am I missing anything?

Thanks

One thing that comes to mind is a transmission fluid and filter change if it has been more than 60k since it was changed, but I wouldn't flush it due to age.
