Here is a service bulletin as far as your "reverse clunk" goes. My 99 5.9 sport is currently in the shop for this. http://dodgeram.info/tsb/2000/21-01-00.htm

RE: vibration
Only the Hunter GSP 9700 balance center
can eliminate
tire/wheel/brake rotor
imbalance down to the point where you then
start looking for another vibration cause:

If the first tire balance improved things
it is likely a better balance from a GSP9700
might eliminate the remainder of the vibration,
especially if the brake rotors are balanced and the tires
dismounted and matched to the low spots on the wheels.

Seems to be 55 and above, but i've only had the truck up to 65...
How else do you check u joints other than moving the driveshaft by hand?? Everything seems tight under there.
I do get a clunk when I put the truck in reverse from park.

RE: vibration
From the FSM:
VIBRATION
Tires that are out-of-round, or wheels that are unbalanced, will cause a low frequency vibration.
Brake drums that are unbalanced will cause a harsh, low frequency vibration.
Driveline vibration can also result from loose or damaged engine mounts.
Propeller shaft vibration increases as the vehicle speed is increased. A vibration that occurs within a specific speed range is not usually caused by a propeller shaft being unbalanced. Defective universal joints, or an incorrect propeller shaft angle, are usually the cause of such a vibration.
When you checked the u-joints for play ... did you make sure the driveshaft was unloaded (no tension on the driveline)?
