Hey Dsm'ers i don't really know how to put this , first off this is my first AWD 2G, anyway when i shift gear's, or really hit the gas i hear and feel like a clunk sound in the rear, one person said it could be my struts and another thinks it's my diff if anyone has had this problem please shed some light also has a ANTI-LOCK light on ?:confused:
 
If it happens when you hit a bump, it's rear suspension bushings.

If it happens during a hard shift, it's rear diff bushings. 2Gs are getting old enough now that it is becoming common to see worn rear diff bushings.
 
I'd pull the ABS fuse to be sure it isn't that messing you up. No idea if it's possible but it's simple enough to do and cross off the list but your ABS light and your clunking might not be related, and in that case, Jack's post sums it up pretty nice.
Do you have a logger? It would likely tell you what kind of ABS malfunction you're experiencing.
