A good set of metric 1/2” or 3/8” socket and wrench set, a do it all screwdriver you can swap different heads out of should be good. Maybe a breaker bar. Triple A Gold Membership just in case.

You may want to bring along a new thermostat Genuine, but things like belts, sensors can be had at Napa or other stores. A new set of good wipers would not be a bad idea either.

Convert it to Rotella 5w-40 for the drive with a K&N 3001, but the other fluids last 20k to 40k so just make sure they are topped off and not completely shot.

Have a good time and Congratulations!

mainly because checking it is a pain in the neck, and they leak like crazy. And you will need a 1/2” breaker bar to do this, a 1/2” Socket wrench not a bad idea either. I use the pump type filler that fits right on the heat oil bottle, and it works great.

Harbor Freight is your friend. I have had good luck with their impact sockets, and socket wrenches. The filler plug for the Transfer case is concealed by a cable. A 1/2” socket with as small a head as possible is a good idea. Also, maybe a small length of pipe to add to the end of a 1/2” socket instead of breaker bar could work well.

then buy a bag to keep the tools in, in the back. I keep a few specific tools in one for long trips. You never know if you may have to change a headlight bulb, or other ancillaries.
