While I had my rig on stands I grabbed the rear wheel and pulled it. It had about 1/8 play and made this klunk. Both sides did it. I never noticed it before. is it something to worry about.

Not to be a smart @$$ but are the lug nuts tight? That's what it sounds like to me?

Yup the lugs are tight.. I can feel the whole shaft move and the clunk is in the diff..
