Default 4l65e Upgrades

I got a 13k mile 4l65e with a lq4 that will be going into a jeep. It is supposed to be in perfect working condition, however I am looking for info on if there are any mods that should be done to prolong life/make better before putting it in the Jeep.

As of now it is just sitting in the shop. I have tried to do some research on this with the search function however I was not very successful. Would shift kits be a good thing to look into? Corvette Servo? Anything that you guys think would help to increase life and make the transmission better. As of now the engine will be pretty mild, very minor mods, down the road may do more to it, however will never be a race car by anymeans.
