Where do you hear it? Under the car, the rear, the front ???

I had a random clunk in the front once, turned out to be my battery sliding side to slide when I would brake.

its either in the front or in the middle like maybe a trans mount or sometin idk. its really weird bcuz i not sure if its a braking issue or maybe sometin due to the deceleration.

I had a problem like that. It ended up being a LCA relocation brackets were loose and would move back and forth depending on braking/accelerating.

i am having a similar problem with my GMC 2500HD. i have checked trans mount and drivetrain slack. when i come to a complete stop it will clunk, and when the brakes are released another clunk and then again when accelerating from a stop. almost seems like a converter issue.
