You mean your rear end slides out to the left? That comes with a positrack rear end and is something you can get used to with practice. There are ways to compensate for it such as: air bag in right rear spring, heavy duty rear stabilizer bar (drag race type), different type of differential, etc.

Buy an adjustable panhard bar from BMR/UMI/Spohn... The rest of the above listed (bags etc) I don't know a thing about. Just know that the panhard helps quite a bit with tracking

Not really easy to spoon feed you this one. It's a matter of preference and opinion...

Personally, I like QA1 shocks from HAL. Spohn Torque Arm/LCAs/Panhard bar.
