over the past week i have installed 4.10s, SSM lift bars, lowering springs, and new calipers and rotors. when i drive my car and i give it some gas i get this clunking sound that sounds like it is coming from where my tranny and driveshaft meet. i notice it most when i shift since i get off of the gas and then back on it. it does it every time. i noticed that i had to pull my driveshaft out of the tranny a little bit so that i could bolt it to the rear end. if any one could give me any input on your thoughts about the noise, i would greatly appreciate it.
thanks,
Steve

Did you weld the drop plates to the shock mounts, or at least bolt them? If not, the plates may be rotating, causing things to move a little and be all out of whack. One other thing, if you have the same lift bars as I do, the solid bushings transmit every noise and bump from the axle straight to the chassis. I notice some noises now that I didn't with the soft stock rubber bushings. Just a thought.
