Based on the many many many many many versions of what to replace at 120k, I was putting together a list of what I think needs to be done based on all of those threads... let me know if i'm missing anything.

valve cover gaskets
spark plug gaskets
cam shaft seals
lifters
valve stem seals
upper intake manifold gasket
throttle body gasket
spark plugs
wires
oil pump
oil filter housing gasket
oil pump gasket
water pump/gasket/o-ring
timing belt
hydraulic tensioner
both tbelt idler pullies
accessory belt
power steering belt
ac tensioner pully
alt tensioner pully
front turbo oil feed line crush washers
turbo oil feed line gaskets
fuel filter
Inspect: Struts/Shocks, Rotors, Brake Pads and replace as necessary
intake plenum gasket
replace tranny, ps & pb fluid

That's... pretty much all I can think off. Toss on a transfer case bracket too while you're under the car. They're under a hundred bucks over at Maximal. I'd probably upgrade the wires too, rather than paying for OEMs.

flush coolant?

i'd say flush tranny, ps & pb...not just replace.

ptu...possibly?

Oil Pickup tube and gasket. Especially if you have a dented oil pan.
Front Main Oil Seal.
Throttle Body shaft seal - replace gasket if removed.
Check and replace if necessary oil cooler/lines/crush washers. This often goes unlooked as it's behind the front splash shield.
All steering linkages/hubs/ball joints, etc.

There's no such thing as turbo oil feed line gaskets. You had it right above it with crush washers. And I really wouldn't bother with the turbo oil feed crush washers. The front can be next to impossible to get without removing the ac compressor and bracket, unless you meant where is bolts to the turbo.
Also won't bother with the intake and throttle body gaskets as they're not wear items. Plenum gasket yes as that gets removed alot.

do yourself a favor and change out your timing tensioner bolts. To many ppl have had problems with those and its cheap insurance.

Definitely listen to him. an $8 bolt is cheaper than new heads/valves.
