Good JK noises vs. bad JK noises

So, I recently joined the ranks of the Jeeped - picked up a '12 JKUR yesterday with 67K. On the stop-and-go drive back from SC, I did notice I was getting a noise I hadn't read about before - a little "clunk" whenever I get hard on the throttle. If I ease on it, it doesn't happen. Seems to occur in any gear.

Also, just how noisy are your NSG370s? I don't mind a noisy transmission if that's normal, but I want to know the difference between a "that's performing as designed" to "that's a TOB and friction plate that's bought the farm." Thanks!
 
my TJ made a clunk when the transmission mount was bad... hard throttle would make the clunk or if i let the clutch out really fast from a dead stop... if i eased it out it would be fine...

i could also male the clunk if i hit the throttle repeatedly if i was rolling in first gear like i was trying to make the jeep hop... pop pop pop pop...


drop the skid plate and check the trans mount..
 
I noticed mine makes a small clunk when going to or from backing up, nothing when actually moving though, seems to be a normal noise and I haven't heard anything else since I got mine, only been since Dec though.
