Hello!
When I accelerate or decelerate, I hear and feel a clunk in the rear suspension that I cannot narrow down. It also constantly clunks when cruising at a very low engine load and RPM. It feels almost like the diff has way too much backlash, and the pinion is slamming forward and back. (though twisting the driveshaft by hand results in a normal backlash and spider gear play.) This has been happening the past probably 3-4 months but recently its gotten worse
I am running ben's spherical main trailing arm to axle bushing, and his full heim torque and panhard rods. (installed in March-ish) The last original bushing in the rear is the front trailing arm bushing. I can wedge a screwdriver between the trailing arm and body and move the arm pretty easily making me think this bushing is bad.

Am I headed in the right direction? Should I replace this bushing with poly?
