You sure its in the rear end? Can you jack it up an turn the wheels to better narrow it down?

need more info about this clunk...... as Rob asked, are you positive its coming from the rear... ?
if not, check your transmission mount as well... not sure if it uses the usual stock rubber mount, but if it breaks, the tranny will thunk against the bottom of the car...

I had buddy from hillview take a look at it,brian ********. he said its the rear end and he assumes its a bearing within. Hes a younger guy and although he said he's done a few rear ends he wasn't very helpful. Ill jack it up and take another look as the mechanic kind of rushed though the inspection. Ill let you know what I find and Ill give 90titaniumstang a ring probably tomorro or monday, Thanks!

Improper installation of the gears is the problem, I bet. A good rebuilt kit in the right hands should fix your trouble.

Ok so got 2 wisdom teeth out yesterday and traded my hydrocodon for a few bucks and some rear gear oil... haha. Anywho.. didn't hurt to bad anyways so I stopped by 90titaniumstangs place over by the skating rink and he busted out my rear end. driveshaft, calipers, axles, gears, the works. he installed new bearing etc in a matter of a few hours, Thanks a ton and the gears work perfectly!
