Need advice...Clunk Noise Coming from rear

[lout]

spare wheel loose?
more info required
does it do it stationary changing from drive to reverse and back
or only when moving
worse on bumpy roads
going over speed bumps
or does it on smooth roads

Also does it when just rolling slow and in reverse and take off doesnt just clunk but sounds like its grinding a bit to most the mechs i took it too didnt even drive it and one said it was a front bearing which he replaced didn't fix cas noise is in the back last two mechs said its cv shaft 1st one overcharged want 600 just for a cv then next on did the cv in the other side that was yesterday and still have the problem

seems like diff backlash
jack car up and put on blocks
place in neutral with handbrake on
grab tailshaft and rotate forward and backward
repeat test after long drive when diff is hot

Could it be the rear brakes or handbrake needs adjustment ?
This from a 2007 post here (vt diff clunking)
"Would you believe it was the hand brake out of adjustment.... Adjusted it at the wheels and then readjusted the cable at the lever, no more poblem and drives great."
Someone else posts in another thread that its the rear disc pads or handbrake shoes and that if you apply the handbrake while in reverse it repositions them . Lots of threads about it where folk have thrown money into sorting it and it hasnt done anything...My car has never done it...changed diff oil year before last (oil out was very clean) flushed brakelines late last year...adjusted handbrake 4 months ago... Good Luck finding the cause...
