Talking Re: Drive train "Clunk"
THere is a hex metric socket on the driverside lower part of diff.You can pop it and poke finger in to check the color. I believe there is a second one to drain it which is lower.

Diff is not limiting the rotation of the driveshaft IMO.

Seems like 15 degrees rotation on the driveshaft, seems excessive at first glance. Check oil and see if its silver. Should change the diff fluid for general principles, but Id bet the diff has either worn or has excessive gap - not enough preload on ring gear.

Good video. WOODY
