When i push on the gas a clunking noise comes from the rear and gets louder when i increase the speed and it only happens when im on the accelerator. I Replaced the u joints in the rear driveshaft and i have 4:56 gear in a 8.25 rear end. Need some help guys.
 
How's your transmission mount? I had a similar problem/sound a while back b4 replacing my worn tranny mount. It looked ok, wasn't rotted out like I've seen before, but it was worn out.

just a suggestion... good luck.
 
Check your lugnuts!

I had the same issue and that was all it was
 
x2 on the lug nuts. I once bought a Mazda Miata with a clunk in the rear for 1200$ less that the guy wanted becuase he thought the rear end needed to be replaced. 5 min with a lug wrench and all was well.

ditto, no problems after i did this
 
How difficult is it to replace the trans mount? Anything elaborate going on or pretty straight forward?
 
Ive had a similar clunk from worn out rear shock bushings, as well.
