ok so im getting alot of wheel hop on hard take offs but my main problem is when i punch it from any speed or even just excellerate the car pulls to the left and the rear feels like somethings loose. Possible trailing arm bushings? any ideas?

Worn rear lower control arm bushings would produce those symptoms. The LCA's are the only thing holding the rear axle perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. If the "pull left" under acceleration also causes the rear of the body to shift significanty to one side, look at the panhard rod/bushings.
