I have an '03 6.0 V8 diesel excursion, every once in a while when i am braking or slowing down, i hear a clank noise from the undercarriage, sounds like its coming from right underneath me...anyone know what that would be ??

Something loose associated with torque. Check U-bolts, knuckle, etc, all bolts.

Try checking the bushings in your swaybar end links for wear.

Get under there and shake, pull, push, and wiggle everything.
