Need help with rear end problem The rear end is making a clunk sound when taking off quickly. I have replaced the axle bearings, brake caliper, brakes, rotor and the clunk is still there. Everything looks ok underneath so I'm really confused on what the problem could be. So any help would be highly appreciated. And also the car feels loose in the rear, kinda like it wants to sway back and forth

Check the torque arm bolts on the rear housing to see if they are tight, and also check the torque arm mount on the side of the transmission to make sure its in good shape.
Bad torque arm components will definitely make clunking sounds.
Also check your trailing arms and panhard rod for bad bushings.

Hello
Just another thought for you. Check the hardware on the lower control arms and pan hard bar and make sure they are tight or the bushings might be bad. If not you will have to replace them. If you have any other questions leave me know and I will be sure to help!
Thanks

Also check your parking brake as well as your exhaust for adequate clearance. I chased a cluck for a long time just to find out it was the exhaust hitting the chassis behind the axle.
