[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 15655177, member: 166576"] Check your rear lower control arm bushings. Ive had two poly bushings blowout from drag racing that clunked on the street till I could get it fixed. I run rod end control arms now. Louder, but also much more durable as a street strip car. even if you dont drag race, poly can crack overtime. Prior owner could have begun that process. Worn sway bar bushings will clunk a little if the rubber has completely worn though to metal. typically they will squeak when the suspension articulates when they begin to wear. Blown U joints on a driveshaft would cause a bad vibration at speed. Excessive backlash from your gears would cause an VERY noticeable howl while driving, usually at speed on the freeway in addition to some rotational clunking. You *might* have a drive shaft issue, but if its the stock 2 piece, you should consider upgrading it anyway. The rear axle will shift to one side when raised in the air due to the geometry of the panhard rod. Wouldnt worry about that. Definitely matters when its on the ground, so check it then. I dont think its an alignment issue. [/QUOTE]
