Dude, dropping the car has nothing to do with the issues, "popping up"... Basically, you had these issues before hand, and now you notice them because you didn't realize you had an issue before! I would change the rotor, do the alignment, and go from there... Popping out of gear is related to your synchros, which are obviously going bad, or a throw out bearing. My thinking wants to say the throw out bearing...

The trans issue is unrelated.
Lowering the car throws all the alignment angles out and could produce a pull or even some shake, but I don't think it would be as violent as the one you're describing. MY opinion is that you tightened the wheel down when it was not totally flush and/ or didn't do a proper torque pattern on them.
Have the car aligned. If you don't have camber kits, get them. Then make sure the shop that aligns it torques the wheels to 80lb/ft in a proper pattern to ensure the wheel is flush with the hub.
