Full Fluid Change / Flush

I am going to be a new owner soon, and want to do a complete fluid drain/fill/flush so I will have all fresh fluids. I've done my best at using the search buton and would like to make sure I have everything listed written down correctly.

Engine:
5 Quarts
20W-50 (summer) or 10W-30 (winter)
Mobil 1 / Castrol GTX
every 3k miles or less

Transmission:
2.6 Quarts
75w-90
Amsoil / Redline / Royal Purple
every 20k miles or less

Differential:
1.4 Quarts
75w-90
Amsoil / Redline / Royal Purple
every 20k miles or less

Power Steering Fluid:
1 Quart
Dexron II or M-III
every 10k miles or less

Brake Fluid:
1 Liter
ATE Super Blue Racing Brake Fluid
Every spring

Coolant:
1 Gal Prestone (green)
2 Gal Distilled Water
Every spring


How'd I do?

Royal Purple diff fluid typically comes with the LSD additive that you may or may not need. I would look into that.
