Thanks for the tag. We are in private message for any concerns wishing to discuss further!
I don't know, but was wondering if this is the noise everyone else was experiencing with the bad diff.
Now this is interesting. This thread is more about a rotational knocking sound. However, you are describing a different issue.....a loud clunk when taking off from a stop.I'm joining the re-end clunk club. For the past few months I've noticed an increasingly loud clunk coming from the rear when the Jeep starts forward from a stop. It happens when driving straight or turning. Finally had a dealer confirm the noise and he said "it happens on these Jeeps" and said they ordered the following part (68474060AC) to resolve the issue. I haven't read of anyone else needing this part replaced to confirm the service manager's comment. We'll see if they find anything else once they open up the diff. Will update the thread after the repair.

I still have this noise. It's been there now for both axels. The first one and the replacement. I will eventually upgrade the axels. Not worried about it for now.
i had this happened to me today. Knock when stop and knock on takeoff. you know whats right on top of the axle? The storage cubby. in my case it was my snatch block making the noiseI'm joining the re-end clunk club.

. Anyway, check your tailgate, also check that your spare tire lugs are not loose. check that nothing in the cubby is banging around, check that your scissor jack isnt making the noise either.The noise mostly comes from the rear, but sometimes it feels like it's from the front. Hard to know exactly.
"Oh thats normal on these wranglers. Lets replace your whole axle"
I'm fairly certain he's (or she's) experiencing the same problem I am. I've seen a few threads on it. I can attest it's not something loose among the cargo area. It's usually just a noise, but sometimes you can feel it. And sometimes it feels like it's coming from the front, but mostly the rear. Which just makes it more complexing.i had this happened to me today. Knock when stop and knock on takeoff. you know whats right on top of the axle?

If it isnt anything under the jeep i would check rear suspension components. Since it is just one clunk on takeoff and stop. Make sure your rear springs are seated properly, check shocks make sure they are not leaking, I had a rubi front shock crap out at 15k miles, retorque control arms or tell shop to do so. good luck.
There's been a few posts saying they replaced the whole axle. And even more that appears they don't have a definitive solution.
I went almost 55k miles and never noticed a difference in performance (On road only). They repalced my axel out of "noise" and warranty. It was "screaming" after the 37's we're put on. Power delivery, etc is/was optimal for the time being. Can't say it was broke myself I have had limited Wrangler experience. First gen owner. I'll try to add as much as I can to the conversation. Jeep cares was phenomenal... everything seemed to move faster after providing them with my information.i had this happened to me today.

Yup that sounds like the clunk
