Default Help with Bucking at low RPM's in all gears when not under load

My stang runs great except when I'm tryint to drive slow through a parking lot, or if the RPM's get too low in any gear, then it starts to buck bad. I have to push in the clutch or give it gas to make it stop. Why is this, I know its a pretty common problem. I know I have excessive play in my rear of U-joints that makes it feel even worse.
