Try some traction/slapper bars. Unless you are going to redo the rear suspension then I'd say go with a Ladder Bar or 4-link with Coilover's.

the springs are too weak for the torque. you can try traction bars like the others said.

would stiffer shocks or maybe an overload spring help at all

Sounds like you need a 4 link, do it right put some nice coilovers on it and a big ol swaybar and it should handle nice
