Try to get it to reproduce from fed to reverse vs stop and settle.

The stopping is loading suspension like a spring and when you finally stop the spring releases the stored energy.

If that release moves a worn bushing or ball joint you’ll get a clunk. When I switch from rev to fed I get it every time so try to get it to clunk with some rev to fwd or opposite. Also with the wheels turned. The key to finding it is make it happen vs random.

Also as BC suggest it could be a loose item rolling around with the spare tire etc.
