Is it possible to upgrade or tweak my stock suspension so I can travel on a bumpy road at 40-45 mph like a car does?

A little. A rear sway bar might help if you don't have one. The main problem is the solid axle. Due to the nature of the design, they are going to hop on bumpy roads. It's just the nature of the beast.

i good set of shocks will help alot but it will still be a truck and it will ride like one. it will never handle like a car

not really, i like the TTB suspension but my IFS ranger handles and rides alot better than my TTB rangers ever did.

Eh I don't own a newer one, but I've hit plenty of crappy gravel roads in my TTB and it did pretty well.
