Check your transmission mount and torque arm mount (on the side of the trans). If either is worn or broken, they can cause a clunk.

well if they have the car dropping into 1st too low in the mph that could cause it. i expereinced something similar and i uped the shift point and it went away. could be the problem.

I have this same issue... Sounds like a clunk as soon as it downshifts when coming to a stop. I guess im going to look into it now.
