Default Rear End gonna blow?

So I have this clunkin noise in the rear of the truck when I coast then give it gas in the lower grears. Never heard this before? I check my driveshaft to see if it would turn to check the U-Joints and doesnt move at all solid. So is my rear end a ticking timebomb?

I would pull off the cover and inspect it before it causes more damage. If you can't then find a mechanic.

Speed Safely,

Check the rest of the easy stuff before you do anything...like the exhaust for banging or the tranny mount.
