Metal on metal sound (clanking)

Check the trunk support glide.

I have been having the same issue. An occasional clanking in the right rear, usually at low speed. I too have checked under the car for anything loose or rubbing and have come up with nothing. I am planning to replace the original shock mounts with the new upgraded Performance Unlimited mounts. I was thinking that might be part of the problem...even if it's not it looks like a good upgrade.

Thanks for the tip about the trunk support Blas. Although it doesn't sound like it is something that lightweight. I will check that tonight.

When you figure it out, let me know too,

Got a clunk in the right rear when entering a driveway on a right turn while going anything but dead slow.

Drives me nuts!

when it is not locked up right...but...this sounds like a much thicker gage...more like a clamp ... something loose... I thought for sure it was the rods for the top, about that thickness..... not necessarily on irregular surfaces but under some sort of torsion...I'll check the trunk rub and recheck the bolts on the half shaft and diff. in the morning...annoying..
