sounds like a good trip if you plan to do lots of off roading then a phew spare tires could be a start

I suppose it depends how capable a mechanic you are.
I'd take oil, coolant, screenwash, water, full set of filters. Spare bulbs. Tyre repair kit. Compressor. Fuses. Decent tow rope.
Break light switch is a common fault and a cheap 'spare'.
Might be tempted to take a spare wheel bearing between the three of you.
Could you get a compressor?
Spare wheel nuts
Maybe ask local garage if you could take some bits 'use or return'. Our local garage can get stuff rom their suppliers for a short time and return it.
Get a Haynes manual - pictures not as clear as on here, but no dependant on internet connection.
It's a Landrover so - big hammer.
Diagnostics?
