I would think the rear swaybar would help some, since it would resist bodyroll= less pivoting/less axle side movement

EDIT: also do you still have the rubber bushings between the axle and leaf spring. I would be getting rid of those too.
Well a rear end will move that much. There is a lot of areas that can move from the leaf points to the holders (can't remember the name) but there is a lot of play that is typical in these areas under heavy lateral load. The swaybar doesn't help at all for side to side motion. In fact around where the sway bar, there is about an inch on each side where it has itself gone side to side and pealed off the paint, that now has to be repainted.
