drive shaft splines

I know there have been threads on the drive shaft spline grease but I have searched those until I am blue in the face and can not find one that answers my question. I am felling 3 or 4 clunks when I start off from a dead stop. They are not hash but it is like slack being taken up. Can it still be the splines with multiple thumps or is this a sign of another problem.

I am going to grease tomorrow to rule out but thought I would ask the pros.

Thanks
