Would a clunking sound coming from the rear be related to this?

I've already decided on 3.73s.
anyway- back to the topic on hand, would clunking coming from the rear end be related to this? It doesn't sound like its suspension related and from the searches I've done on the fourum, it seems like the one wheel peel and the clunking could be related.

Also, another question, would changing the fluid in the rear differential solve my problem?

Talk to tha hand Purp.

No changing the fluid will not fix broken metal. Its not locking up under tire slippage because its mechanically screwed. Improper fluid wont cause something like this. Yes a noise in your rear is to be expected when the trac-loc is broken. Get it rebuilt and get back to burning rubber.

Then it does not have the original differential--Traction-Lok was standard on all '03 GTs...

It has 373's in the rear, it has traction lock, but there are blocks, no clutch plates... i just had the rear serviced and the guy showed me. it's not a true posi.
