If your truck is in OK running condition you don't need to do anything special before shipping it to Hawaii. Temperatures there are moderated by the trade winds and it rarely gets to be 90 degrees.
When your truck gets to Hawaii, you will have to get it registered there. Registration requires getting a saftey inspection first and if everything is stock and you have an insurance card, the safety inspection is no problem. If you have any visible aftermarket stuff, you will have to get a "reconstruction permit" before a safety inspection. Since there is only one place to get that permit, this is a hassle.
