Default a solid thud coming from rearend

hey, i recently noticed that when i am changing gears an let out of the clutch kinda of fast a hard and solid thud sound comes from the rear end. I dont know if this is some kind of sign that the rear end is going out or if its just normal, if anyone has any ideas please let me know, thanks

Default noise

is it a thud or a crunch..if its a crunching type of noise you may need the rear axle splines lubed and retorqued.if its a definate thud,you may have a u-joint going bad or excessive lash in the diff.

Get it to some one that can put it on a hoist and check the rear end.also thinking about it have them check the rear trans mount.
