Since you're not in a wet climate and it's only two months, I'd make sure it has a full tank of gas with some Stabil in it, disconnect the battery and maybe put it up on jack stands. I assume it's being stored indoors? If not, I'd buy a car cover for it.

2 months isn't a big deal for summer storage. Just fill up the gas tank and disconnect the battery.

Im putting it in a storage unit. What is Stabile? Do I need to be worried about the heat at all? Thanks for everyones replies.

I'd say heat shouldn't be a factor. I had two cars in Public Storage while my wife and I were deployed for 6 months. No problems with either of them. All I did was put a full tank in each and dryer sheets everywhere, that really does keep mice from chewing up your wires etc.
It'll be okay

Stabil, is a fuel additive which prevents the fuel from "going bad" during long term storage (in a nutshell). You can find it at most auto parts stores. There's really no need to use Stabil unless you are storing your vehicle for an extended period of time, IMHO.
