First do you have a 231 Transfer case, if so why is it in 4wd when on pavement. If you are getting the clunk when in 2wd, look at motor and tranny mounts and U-Joints in the rear drive shaft. TC Chain could be an issue IF you are in 4wd when the clunk happens. Could also be the bushings in your rear springs or shackles. Could be excessive lash in the ring and pinion, does it whine?

had the same problem and it was the t-case mount and the t-case would move a good 3" from side to side, get under it and just push up and over either way and you will be able to tell!
