Yep, it's the rear end.
We changed the carrier bearing and all the U joints, the klunk sound is still there so we checked the differential a little closer and holy sh!t, the diff cover is pushed outward in the middle. Oh well, I was going to change the gears anyway.

Ahhh Crap! That Sucks!
I was hoping it was the u-joints or carrier. Sorry to hear it was the diff. Hope you like that smell of 90wt! :p

The synthetic stuff isn't as offensive...but the dinosaur gear oil will always make you wanna yak...clean or 30 years old.
Huge bummer on your rear though man. |

Yeah, gear oil is mega rank! Think it's got x amount of sulphur in it, gag you fresh out of the bottle. Burnt auto trans fluid comes in a close second.
