I ended up taking the car over to a indy who specializes in German cars, and he confirmed that it was the axle as soon as he heard the clunk. Plus, it appears that the other axle is also starting to clunk. So I don't think swapping them would be the way to go.

I thought of that, but it doesn't appear to be the case here.
