Default I have searched with no LUCK!

For the last 2 summers I have been chasing a clunk coming from right under the drivers seat. It only happens when the car is with the clutch in and I am coming to a stop from lets say 25mph or higher, and it is more if im breaking on a bumpy road! It seems to do it when there is no load on the driveline and or gas being applied. It sounds like my headers are hitting the floor board (THEY ARE NOT!), it sounds like the trans mount is loose (IT IS NOT I have replaced it with a poly and still the same ****!), it sounds like the cross member is loose (IT IS NOT I replaced it with a UMI piece w/TQ arm relocator and still the same ****!), It sounds like my DS is hitting the tunnel (IT IS NOT I have taken it to different shops and my tunnel has no markings on it, SAME ****!), It sounds like my U-joints can be worn out (THEY ARE NOT, all shop removed my DS and inspected them and said they are both OK, again SAME ****!), It sounds like my SLP TQ arm is hitting the tunnel (IT IS NOT also inspected it and there are no markings anywhere! SAME ****! It is driving me FRICKIN CRAZY!

It sounds like that kinda noise if you can get my meaning, I have heard it might be my bushing/s in the tail shaft. Can this be? Is it a difficult fix?

Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Thanks
Zeke

Anyone else?
Is there a bushing in the tail shaft that would make that assembly loose?

There is a lot of slack in these drivelines, it's probably just your gears in your trans/rear end clunkin back and forth.

I didn't have this noise before? It just started doing it At the end of the summer before last.
I hope a trans expert can chime invon this to start eliminating what's causeing this.
