Here are some things to try:
Let some air out of the tires - Definitely make sure you're not running at the sidewall rated max PSI
Run a 'P' series tire instead of an 'LT' 6 ply tire
Run a 15" tire/wheel with tall sidewall instead of a low profile
Softer spring rate
Use bonded rubber (cleveite type) bushings instead of polyurethane in your steering and suspension
In the Jeep word we see people switch to 8 and 10 ply rated MT tires which are WAY too stiff when ran at Jeeps recommended tire pressure, it makes a new jeep ride like a tank. I think I run my jeep tires at like 26 PSI instead of the 43 PSI listed in the door jamb.
