Depends on your application. Do you want to just play in the mud or do you want to take it on trails and climb stuff?
A good start is lots of ground clearance, aggressive tires and locking diffs. I also prefer an automatic transmission over a manual for wheeling, but that's just me, many others will argue that.
From there, as the others said, lower gearing, SFA or IFS, again depending on your application. Both can get some crazy flex.

like has been stated previously, its all in what you want it for. if you are going to be hitting the Florida mud pits you want something huge and wide for stability at those ridiculous heights. if you wanna crawl your way though boulders you need something slimmer with good clearance, not too much height and as low of a CG as possible. both of these things can be accomplished many different ways.

^ right on that..
might wanna tell what u want to do witht he car so we could help u ecide whats better for ur needs..
but the killer 4x4 thing to have is a good driver... ive seen vids of guys with hummers .... doing stuff that even a lowered 4x2 truck could do... and 4x2 trucks doing amazing things...
but i like manual transmision for alot. for most scenarios lockers are a great plus on the car and ground clearence id say. other than that it depends on the use u want

There is alot of trails in PA. From what I have seen everything is pretty tight. Keep away from a fullsize rig if you want it to remain somewhat distinguishable. In trails you need flex. Much like rock crawling, flex and gearing are your friends.
But anyone can wheel a Jeep. It takes a real man to wheel a ranger
