loud bang when I put the car in D or R from park

I'm getting a loud bang when I put the car in D or R from park. I just changed the U-joints last week and that wasn't it. Can anyone help?

Car: VIN=85 T/A, CAR=82/3 T/A gfx, go figure. She's a T/A anyway!

Too much backlash (play) in the differential possibly.

Also sounds like it could be a broken trans mount.

I agree, had it numerous times on mine as well. If you replace it see if you can get a good one like from Energy Suspension. The cheap ones at Advance etc. are crap, had it break again in less than 6 mos.
