Bad U-Joint?
I can hear a clunking noise from under my car after I shift, but if I let the clutch out really easy it doesn't do it. I can also hear a rattling noise when I go over bumps. Both of these noises started happening this morning. My boyfriend got under my car and he said it looks like the u-joint is loose.
Is it bad to drive in this condition? How much can I expect to pay for a new u-joint?
Thanks!

I have to replace the U joints in my pickup soon, it's been clunking for more that 6 months now . Not really looking forward to doing it.

I took it to a mechanic and he said it's my transmission mount. I've got a new tranny mount on the way, hope it gets here soon...I'm sick of granny shifting!!!
Does an hour's labor sound okay for replacing it?
