I agree with Electrician, normally the clunking is loose u-joints in the drive shaft. May not be in your case, but, in my experience it's usually worn u-joints.

I should have mentioned, my van is my home. And it still runs fine, just must be a lot of wear in that Diff.
I am leaning towards pumping-out a enough diff-fluid so I can put in some new fluid and
friction-modifier/additive ......the oil back there is quite worn, maybe original.
Thanks everyone for all the advice, much appreciated!
