Solid Axle Swap. I dont off road at all tho hahaha. Probably ditching the stock crap for a ford 9" or along those lines.

youd be surprised how cheap you could do it
if you know people who have a fab. shop, and if you know how to work a welder
doin it yourself will save you tons

see you can climb more when you are SASed.
