Taking the Wrangler into the desert this weekend - pre-trip check question

So a few of us are planning a desert drive out near Sweihan this Friday and I'm super excited because it's been ages since I've really taken my Wrangler off-road properly. Thing is I want to make sure everything's in tip-top shape before we head out because there's nothing worse than breaking down miles from anywhere in the middle of nowhere with the sun beating down on you. I've already checked the basics like tyre pressures and fluids but I'm a bit concerned about the suspension because I've been hearing some creaking from the front end lately and I really don't want that turning into something catastrophic when I'm bouncing over dunes. I've been looking for a place that really understands off-road prep and doesn't just treat it like a regular road car service because these things need proper attention if you're actually going to push them. I've heard there's some Top Jeep maintenance and off-road vehicle repair in Abu Dhabi that specialises in exactly this kind of work but I'm not sure which specific workshop that refers to. Does anyone have a recommendation for somewhere that can do a thorough pre-trip inspection and actually knows what to look for on a Wrangler that's going to see some serious sand? Really appreciate any pointers.
