Why are you yelling at us?
Could be few things, the driveshaft flexible couplings could be splitting, causing some play, rear tranny mount could be split, could be something as simple as brakes.
I've had numerous "complaints" of clunk/chirp while putting into gear, it was just the slightest free play in the rear brake pads tightening up against the rotors and making that metallic resonating groan.
Little more specific...
