Default Going on long trip - What to check/replace?

I am taking a bone stock 98 ex with 144k mi on a long trip in a couple weeks. Its in good shape and I've already done a lot to it as far as tuning and fluids. Is there anything else in particular with this model I should be paying extra attention to? If you were driving your civic half way across the country and back what would you check/service/repair/replace in order to have peace of mind? I don't want any surprises on the road!
