Flex disk going bad??

I have a slight clunk when I put my car in D or R from P. I did a search and found lots of information leading me to think that my flex disk has finally called it a night at 171,000+ miles. What I am trying to determine is when people say the drive shaft has excessive play, do you mean that the shaft can be moved by hand front-to-back OR wiggled side-to-side? How do you pinpoint a front disk VS a rear disk. I am going to put my car on the lift in the morning and I want to make sure that I am diagnosing the problem properly.
From what I have gathered, replacing the flex disk is not that hard, it just takes time and patience.
Has anyone done a flex disk lately?
