Maybe your stock bushings are shot. Give them a look and if they are in bad shape install a good set of polyurethane bushings.

Don't you have the torque arm similar to the third gen camaros?
Check the torque arm and front mount.
Also check the bushings for the lower links.
Check the shocks, maybe you have a bad one.
