Ride quality question - your opinion please
So I now have a family and I need to use the 4runner for other things and tired of the complaints about bounce or stiffness.
I want to make this a luxury ride. What do I do? I want it to ride like 2012 runner right off the floor. Where do I start?
It's a '99 with 180k - the back does not sag - but is a little bouncy. You feel potholes more than I think you should.
Please help!!!

AKA leaf springs, shocks, bushings (mostly in the front).
Read reviews on which shocks suits your needs.
Tire size also plays a part in this. Low profile tires will fill every single bump so a fatter profile would be better. But not too big to sacrifice MPG. Also tire pressures.
