With PRG's Performance kit on my truck it's like having a sport truck! The good news is that I'm using all of my suspension travel frt & rear. If you have 6" of wheel travel but are only using 4", it's too stiff for what you do...
i'm guessing he means firmer and doesn't plan on going on any high speed dessert runs. well, if he gets either SAWs or DRs (with a 1" spacer) and cranks up the height (increasing preload) he will have everything he is asking for; stiffer (via cranking up preload), better and higher.
