Also check the bolts, propshaft flange to gearbox and to diff. 'Click' on take up of power is a sign that the needle bearing in are worn, a 'Clunk' is the bolts are loose or the U/J's are really badly worn, assumimg the diff internals are in good order ( rare to get problems with diff internals if oil is correct) Problems with the prop U/J's,bolts are noticiable by listening for noise/vibration with a power on/power off situation and listening for anomalities .
