I have a clunking/knocking sound that starts at 10 MPH and increases frequency as speed increases. If I remove driveshaft sound stops. Driveshaft has new joints. Axle has new wheel bearings checked carrier and pinion bearings they are OK as well. If the truck is on lift engine running in gear tires turning it does not make the sound

I'm not sure where to go from here. Its beginning to drive me crazy. Any help paint s greatly appreciated

Driving home last night heard a loud bang. Like the floor was smacked with a hammer and clunking got worse now has a pop every so often. Thinking may be in t-case. Will tear down next week to see
