...making the rear end stiffer....

For the front i have a strut tower bar....now what i have noticed when your in a turn that I don't really like is the front is stiffer than the back, the back infact leans in a way where the feel's like it's about to do a 180 if I don't get out of that turn........I might not be explaining myself better...but anyhow, I know the rear end is anaxle....but I found these shocks.....drag shock's that have a spring in them and are adjustable....do you guys think a stiffer shock...that's adjustable is going to help with temporary lean?

Adjustable panhard rod might help, sway bars, springs, shocks.

All the above will help. I'm sure a panhard rod would do the trick, it being the cheapest out of all.

The "leaning" can be corrected with stiffer sway bars. I replaced my stock 2001 Z28 bars with the RKSport solid 35MM front & solid 25MM rear. NO MORE LEANING.
