Does anything happen to the gear shifter when you hear the clunk? Does it clunk again, back, when you accelerate? I'm just thinking of broken engine mounts, but I think you'd notice a lot more than just clunking if that were it...

Other things off the top of my head: loose battery; something rolling around in the cab (I know that sounds dumb but you never know...); and uh...I guess that's all I can think of right now.

The only thing I would add is to try testing with the hubs locked/unlocked. May be something to do with the front diff/locking hubs
