Take a look at the carrier bearing and the ujoints on the rear shaft. Then wiggle the pinion shaft to see if it has play. I'd also take a look at the leaf spring bushings, if they are deteriorated it could allow the axle to shift around.

My just started clunking as well. Looks like I'll be addressing this tomorrow. Just wish I had thought about it when I replaced the rear U joint last year.

I had a clunk when accelerating from a stop. It wasn't too bad, but noticable. Turned out to be the back rear ujoint. Did both rears and greased the spline. It was a big improvment.

Went to do this today and found that the bolts are not regular hex head. Does anyone know what the bolt is so I can get the proper wrench for it? It is like a 12 point 1/2 inch but the 12 point 1/2 inch wrench I have is just loose enough to slip under high torque.
Thanks
