What is the configuration of your f350? Long bed? Crew cab? Do you have a one piece drive shaft. A super cab with short bed has a one piece drive shaft. Othere have a multiple piece drive shaft. Putting a lift kit will change the geometry of the powertrain enough to create some clunks. Plus, the F250-350 will let out a clunk when warmed up, parked for 20 mins or longer and then driven. About 2-3 mph rolling forward the clunk will be anywhere from slightly noticeable to "what was that?".
