try and give us more info. "clunking" could mean anything. mine sounds like crackles, but im guessing its my joints...

Check your CV's and then double check them. You may also want to consider checking your motor and tranny mounts. Sometimes if you got a motor mount, or two broke, it'll sound like your engine is gonna hop outta there.

Sounds to me like you need to do a better job pulling out the seeds

were you driving on dry pavement?

Have you thought about the joint in the fromt DS? My old 82 did that clunking because that middle joint was never greased as is the problem on quite a few. People just do not know that there are 3 points to grease on that one joint. Not just the U joints. Gotta grease that middle joint as well.

More than likely its your Axle shaft
OR
could be one of your wheel bearings

Hey! Mine didn't come with any seeds! Is that good? It smokes an awful lot, too. Is that good? And I think it came from CA.....
