So are these services really that important they need to be done at dealership?
Most of this stuff we can check ourselves! I wonder if we do the work we can just have them reset the milage timer!

You can do
all of them yourself.
Even reset the service lamp.
Oil change with mobil1 0w40 syn and fleece filter is easy using a topsider extractor.
Filters at www.autohausaz.com
Fluid changes and coolant are also easy if you can follow diy instructions.
Most every diy should be on the forum or other forums that run the same engine platform M113
