[FC] click or clunk from differential?

Do you have contact info for the IL diff specialist? I am having the same issues, more like a tick though and newer u-joints. Would be nice to have the info if needed. 
 
I have yet to look, mine may even be outboard say brakes or a bearing. I remember the previous owner talking about a tick in the rear and thats why he did u-joints and axle/bearings. It wasnt there initialy, but appeared and hasnt gotten worse yet. 
 
Thanks, Kevin

I should have also said that you just might be due for a diff rebuild.  I 
know a guy who does that, but he's in Illinois.
