Mine does the same thing. The "clunk" is quite annoying.

I believe this is caused either by worn gears in the differential, or by a worn out axle shaft.

I'll be replacing my axle shafts this winter (they are both loose and leaking oil), so I'll find out if that's the cause.

Other ideas? Maybe the subframe mounts...?

Maybe others will chime in.
