I don't know a whole lot about it, but I would think front & rear sway bars, and some good stiff shocks (maybe even duals) would help to keep it stable.

If jumping is involved, you might look at some of the suspension setups the prerunner guys use. Some lift will be needed so the suspension will have some travel to soak up the landings.
