no 1/2 hour fix but longer leaf springs with flatter shackle angles or 3 link it mate, try and avoid radius arm setups they give a good ride but typically no so good flex :D . They're pretty short and narrow wheelbase so getting the wheels pushed out in all directions improves stability and flopability :D

The rear springs are longer and if you modify the chassis to fit them in the front this will be a big improvement for ride comfort and flex, for best results get 4 new lifted rear springs. EFS springs will give the most height (around 3") or old man emu will be around 2". This is a write up on the rear springs up front conversion, commonly known as RUF or Rears Up Front. http://www.auszookers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4269&hilit=stealth+ruf
