Default Clicking in rear end area

Took my 1999 SS Camero into the dealer as it was making a "Clicking" sound a couple of times when first starting out in gear. The dealer stated that the internal driveshaft needs to be replaces as it is flexing. He said there is a service report out on it.

Does this seem right? Has anyone else had the same problem?

Bottom line is they want $450 to order the part. I told them are they willing to take it out if it doesnt fix the prob. Still under review
