Default Rear click/clunk

I'm getting a little slick/clunk when depressing the clutch at low speeds. Like when in reverse then depressing the clutch to put it in first, the tension on the drive train is released and I get a little clunk. This also happens when depressing the clutch in first a low speeds and when shifting to 2nd. The other day I heard a ping that sounded a lot like a bolt breaking. The sound started after that. So I'm assuming that something has come loose, maybe a diff bolt broke? I haven't been able to get the car up on a jack yet. Anyone have a good idea of where to look first?

Rear axle nuts, guaranteed

It's the nuts right behind the rear wheel centercaps. Unstake it, remove it, grease the face of it, re-install it, torque it to 220 Ft-Lbs, re-stake it.

You can do the job through the centercap hole without pulling the wheels.
