Default 83 K5 blazer 4x4 Transmission bangs into gear at idle

My 83 K5 with a 700r4 slams/bangs into gear at idle. It has been sitting for 5 years, but fired right up and other than the hard shifts, it seems to drive fine.
Ideas?

thanks

First thing I would look at is excessive driveline play. Bad motor, transmission mounts will also give you those symptoms. Check the TV pressure cable for smooth movement through the full travel of the throttle arm.
