I have a Ram 1500 4.7 magnum 2006 runs good yet it is at 113,950 miles
so I need to change out transmission oil and replace. Do the timing belt/chain
It's had bearings replaced in front and rear. I use K&N air filter use Royal

The transmission, just change the fluid and filter every 40,000 miles, the timing belt every 60,000 miles, change the wheel bearings when they go bad, and I'd stick with what your using for oil. It is not worth switching to a full synthetic oil with higher mileage, maybe go with a high mileage oil, they have synthetics in those oils.
