Default Dodge caravan knocking around 40-50mph

Hi my DGC 99 has started knocking around my feet low down as i accelerate thru 40 - 50 mph. It struggles to engage that gear. Check engine light comes on and off and it struggles to accelerate beyond that. Struggled on a hill as i accelerated too getting home.

Check engine light has not come on again but i am keeping my speed below 40 until i can get a solution to the problem.

Thanks for any advice, much appreciated.

no faults or codes are showing up on the computer as the check engine light doesnt stay on just comes on when it's knocking.

When i gas on around 2500rpm and accelerate around 40mph this is when it knocks right below my feet.

Doesnt do this below forty and shifts ok.

Thanks again for any help.
