Question Drivetrain Movement When Shifting

I have a 03 6spd.

When I shift at high RPMs I hear a clunk coming from the rear, can hear what sounds like the drivetrain rocking and can feel the shifter move.

I checked the diff mount that usually leaks and it looks clean from the back.

What else should I check?

Thanks!

How is it in the back? Unfortunately our cars have soft "comfortable" bushings

Have you done anything suspension wise to the car? Might be a loose or worn out rear shock?

Thanks. I'll try to check it this weekend to see if it is leaking on the other side.
