Check ur lower control arms to see if the nut might have come lose a bit. mine made a clunking noise just as u described. the nut on the rearend mounting bracket was lose.

first check what that guy said, then if that doesn't help, call Scott @ DriveLine Solutions and explain the situation. He told me about something to do with grinding down the axle shaft(@ the splines) by 3/16". Just ask about it, he has much experience with this axle and can probably point you in the right direction.
