We recently traded our 01 hundred for an 07 hundred with 100,00 on the clock. I haven't checked for the timing belt sticker yet but I know my luck and I am planning on having to do it. I know to go ahead and do the water pump and seals as I had it done to our old 100. I will also change the fluid in the diffs and the tcase, repack wheel bearings, change the spark plugs and change the ATF. Am I over looking anything obvious? Should the AHC be serviced at all? Here's a pic of the 07

Big "yes" on the AHC. 2 cans of fluid needed, with a bit left over. Rotate the tires.

If not done already, I would change the accessory serpentine tensioner, idler pulley and belt.

Heater T-fittings and radiator hoses.

Your '07 has super long life coolant but I'd change it as well.

Also check the AHC neutral pressure, and get it adjusted back to spec. After 7 yrs and 100k m it will be too high. Might have to change the coils to get there.

If you don't know for sure that it has been done lately, get the front wheel bearings repacked and adjusted - check the spindle bearings at the same time (takes 1 min extra). You probably know all this already, but I also mention that the best way to keep the UJs and splines last, is to lube them frequently - e.g. twice for each engine oil change, and always after river crossings.
