Default 2000 camaro z28 clunk

I have a 2000 camaro z28 and there is a clunk only when i put it in reverse. I know it is coming from the rear end but i dont know what it is. The driveshaft seemed like it didnt have any play in it. any ideas?

Could be anything from normal clunk due to backlash setting, torque arm, lcas, sway, loose pinion nut, or u joints. Everything stock back there? Is this a new sound? If so, did you do anything that made it start?

My car has a good clunk since I put in the 9" due to backlash and is normal.

got it figured out, the brace that follows the driveshaft came out of the slot near the transmission
