It could be the bearings are all screwed but it's hard to just guess at it from my computer.
Bad u-joints will clunk when shifting too and if the splines on the driveshaft going into the rear of the transmission or transfer case are dry it can clunk too. A good coating of grease will make it nice and quiet again.
