Beast, you will find that there is no real "list" as everyone has different ideas of what a tune-up entails. Even professional shops do not agree as to what should be done. This is my idea of what should be done:
-Spark plug change out
-Air filter checked (replaced if necessary)
-clean MAF sensor
-Clean throttle body
-INspect/replace PCV valve
-inspection of hoses for cracks
-inspection of serpentine belt (replace if needed)
-Inspect rest of motor for anything leaking (coolant, oil, etc). Top up fluids as appropriate.
Some may also recommend changing out engine coolant. That is up to you. Some may say that this is also a good time to renew the tranny fluid and even the transfer case fluid.

Change oil

Change fuel filter
Every 60k change transmission fluid
Every 90k change spark plugs
Every 90k change differential fluid.
Replace hoses and belts as needed.
Inspect braking system.

Look up a maintenace schedule for a full list.
