I'd sort the u/j's and see if that sorts it first

Hey - I had the same clunk but was also shaking like a leaf whilst driving - it was indeed my UJ's (infact replaced the whole propshaft) and cured it - best of luck....

I too get a Clunk sound from the front, especially when changing gears on the highway! There is a play in my prop shafts and maybe the diffs.

Thanks all looking through the internet it was also mentioned it could be the a frame joint so ordered a new heavy duty adjustable one only £12.00 so what the heck. I'll give feedback on the result.
