As I believe 1BADRAM is alluding to above, make sure your mechanic knows the process for drain/fill...it requires careful temperature monitoring and leveling the transmission.
OP - if you plan to keep the truck, then yes, for sure do all the fluid changes. The tranny refill process is a bit tricky but certainly doable, the diffs and transfer case are super easy.
If I might offer an opinion on this...you may want to consider having a reputable transmission shop do the change, and here's why I say this. Dealerships are often not familiar with doing these fluid changes as they'll hide behind the "lifetime" fluid thing, so it's not part of their daily...
I had that windshield installed in June of 2022...Safelite's aftermarket brand. They did a great job and I've had no issues, even with the ACC, etc, and I feel lucky that my installer was a 21-year veteran of the industry. Of course, that windshield got a star crack in it about a year ago but...

The weight of the tires seems to make a significant difference, so often times you'll see a big hit when switching to an AT tire. I've even seen non-AT tires that are ~6-7lbs heavier than OEM tires.
On a separate note, I run the OEM Bridgestones in summer and Michelin Defenders in winter...
I've got a 2019 Laramie 4x4 Crew. Pretty highly optioned. I have 129K miles on it. One manifold replaced under CPO warranty, third brake light leak I fixed myself. 12" Uconnect with zero issues. I replaced the brakes at about 110K I think, but only because the rears were shot. Otherwise...
I think too that most people overlook the fact that those running boards you installed, your tonneau cover, the tools you stuffed under the rear seat, the napkins in the glove box, the spouse/kids/dog, the beer cooler, and the WDH itself ALL count against your cargo(Payload) number...this is why...
The member (name escapes me) that does the youtube series about high mileage 1500 was running those for a while. I found this video, should help you out.
Did the limited have the flip up towing mirrors? That undoes the ability to have the 360 cameras. (I'm not 100% certain this applies to Limiteds, but I know it did with Laramie Level2 packages in 2019)
As they ☝️ said....there is no such thing as increasing payload, and you surely can't do it by adding stuff to your truck. Rebels are known for lousy payload ratings, so I hate to say it, but maybe the Rebel isn't your best bet. No good answers here.
Guess I'm keeping my "Wednesday" truck too..2019 Laramie with 125K miles and have only had the third brake light leak and one of the manifolds cracked (just inside CPO warranty thankfully). Otherwise it's been the best truck I've owned...even with the 12" screen and lots of other goodies. (Yes...
My truck came with the those "locking" lugnuts, or whatever they're called, so I keep the adapter tool in one, along with a couple spare lugnuts (they put the original 4 extras in there). I keep gloves and a safety green vest in that same bin. In the other I keep one of those drawbars wtih two...
