Default Need help with Auto Trans problem

79 L-82 w/auto trans

When put in gear the trans makes a 1/16th turn counter clockwise and then rotates 1/8th turn clockwise as it engages causing a thump. Could this be caused by the modulator?

Any info would be helpfull at this point.

U-joints and yokes are sound for now, but at this rate they won't be for long.

Thanks Roy

From where are you measuring the amount of trans turning? All I can imagine is that both the engine and the transmission as a unit is torquing over. If that is the case, check your motor mounts. Hope this helps????

Measuring at output shaft on tranny. Strang huh. All mounts are new, first thing I checked.

Thanks
