Post Engine mounts worn?

Every time i go off a small bump or the road has ups and downs i feel and hear a hard bang in the rear of the car.It feels and sounds like the engine is "bouncing" as if it its not "bolted" on the frame of the car securly. Or as if the shocks are reaching their max when compressed and they hit.Has anyone experienced this?By the way i have H&R suspesion and RS sway bars.My ride height is RS spec and i have 18" wheels.

Thanks all! Regards Nick

If it turns out to be motor mounts...you can replace the stock with 993RS, two on the engine and one on the transmission. The transmission mount would be tough to change without dropping the transmission out, so I am told.

Make sure the mounts are tight. I have seen what happens when a mount breaks and it isn't pretty seeing an engine dragging on the ground.
