For one your C.G. is way too high. I would try to loose the aluminum plates and attach the links directly to the tube frame. Why your at it, it might be a good idea to extend the wheelbase ( ie, longer links). Also, try a different mounting location higher up, and further towards the front and rear of the chassis for your shocks ( whatever works, shock mounts are trial and error). You might also consider sway bars on your front and rear lower links. I can't tell how many batteries your running, but you could also try mounting your batteries on the axles themselves. Just my 2 cents.

Shocks are too straight up and down.. Make them angle back and outwards a bit... Will stop the slop... Also what weight Oil are you running? Finally Mount the Shocks at an angle.. Trust me will kill most of the sway you have...
Looks like you are off to a good start but you may also want to add 4 more shocks as the weight will kill the spring of the shocks as well...
