I hope it's the suspension. I have always had a pinging noise(s) on acceleration. Another member posted the same sound prior to purchasing and said it was cured by a shop by "lubing" the rear driveshaft.

Hope it's not that.

I was also thinking it could be motor mounts? The clunk is similar to that which exhibits itself when an E46 rear differential mount bushing completely goes. Except that I "feel" it coming from the front. I've got the truck in the garage and will be under it this weekend. I'll have a poke around with the pry bar and see what I can find.
