The clunk!!!
I searched and found the cause and fix for the clunk, the slip yoke. I pulled it apart and regreased it and it went away. Now my ? is why it makes the clunk?
The splines had grease still on them and the teflon coating looks brand new. Why would this make noise? School me. 2001F250 with 39,000 miles on it.

A common problem for Ford Superdutys is a clunk when putting the truck in gear. The gurus at Ford-Diesel.com have found the problem to be a lack of grease in the rear driveshaft splines.
