2019 Laredo E 4x4 - must do modifications?

I’m getting a new to me GC Laredo E 4x4 this weekend. It only has 28,000 miles so I’m pretty stoked. I’m planning to use this as a daily driver and also off-road in Arizona and California and want to make it more suitable without spending a ton of money. It’ll be moderate off-road and I might try some more challenging stuff but I’m not trying to go rock crawling or do things much better left to a Wrangler. This vehicle is Quada trac I.

What are must do mods and equipment to increase longevity and / or durability? I’ll do these right away-ish. Without spending a ton. Obviously keeping on top of maintenance is #1, but outside of that. This is my current list.

  1. Install device to eliminate default engine start/stop to reduce component wear

  2. Remove front air dam to improve approach angle

  3. Transfer case and diff fluid change

  4. Extend diff/transfer breather lines

  5. Replace current tires + spare with Falken all terrain tires

  6. Fuel tank + transfer case skid plates

  7. Ez tire deflator and compressor

  8. Recovery gear, traction boards etc.

Anything else I’m missing that’s cheap or easy?
