I noticed mine would shift hard from park to reverse when it was low on fluid.

I have put the recomended qts in there it was completely empty due to the trans being taken out when I rebuilt the motor so if I remembered right i put in the 7 or 8 qts that it needed i think 7

It will also do that if your rpm's are higher above stock due to higher vacuum/idle. Check fluid level too.

Sounds to me like the polyurethane mounts are causing it.
