Question Transmission "Clunk?"

I dont really know if this is normal or not but it has been doing for a while now. From a dead stop when I start to take off the trans or the rear end feels like it makes a clunk or a shifting motion. Also the same thing when coming to a stop slowly. The manual said this was somewhat normal on the 5r110 but it feels a little harder than what they are talking about. My truck has 118000 miles on it. Any help would be great.

Clunks would usually lead me to think of a bad u-joint. Check it and see if there is any excessive play.

Old topic here but mine does the same thing. To the OP, did you ever find out what this was? Thanks!

lube slip joint, check carrier bearing, check u joints and if you have a rear sway bar check the mounts on the axle. My truck did the same thing and I lubed the slip joint, changed out carrier bearing and my u joints were in good shape, then I noticed my rear sway bar mount had cracks in them so I welded them up and put a gusset on each one and that solved all the clunking noise.
