Thats a good point. I did track rod end the other day hahahaha. Its not wheel bearings I dont think. My wheels have never been balanced but its never vibrated like this before... it feels like its coming from the back but what do I know?

Might be worth checking the A-frame bushes at the chassis and the joint at the axle end. When they're worn they can cause a wobble/vibration and sometimes also cause a clunk on set-off and when slowing down or letting off power. A small amount of movement can make a huge difference to the feel of the vehicle.

Ok ill give them a check..
Is it a metallic type clunk? I had it do that once but not done it again

Yep.

I found that a sharp clunk or thud was usually the chassis bushes, but the axle wobbling or causing vibration was mostly the joint, but it could be anything like that, even the trailing arm bushes.

Indeed, even though it 'feels' to you that it might be from the rear it could be almost any worn or split bushes, radius arms, damper mounts etc.
 
Going to see if it is panhard rod thats causing the problem seen as there appears to be no bushes haha
 
i'm selling them off now £30 each need some room to make some thing else lol going fast...:D
