Well I decided to make a video of it instead :

I can really control that clunk knock with the throttle so easily.

I've replaced the rear engine mount, tranny mount and rear fork arms, oh and drop links and tightened sway bar...

I am now starting to think something with CV has it really sounds like its coming from that area? If it is the CV area what could it be and what would the fix be?
 
That rules out the prop then. And it's a tip so it's not the DMF. Have you tried jacking it up and using a pry bar under and in front of the tyre whilst checking for movement in the bushes of either the coffin or tuning fork control arms? Could well be a perished bush causing the metal on metal knocking. If you rule that out, I guess the next test would be to jack the rear up on both sides and try to replicate the knocking with the wheels in the air, in case it's drivetrain related.
 
Everything is as tight as a teen.

The closest I can possibly get is by spinning the rear wheel and stopping the wheel suddently, this causes some sort of a similar knock in the diff area.

I am going to look at it more closely now as I thought it was my fork arms but it's not.
 
Well at least you're managing to narrow it down. Are there any leaks from the driveshaft seals to the diff? How much play is in the diff?
 
Well I was less lazy this time well I think I have found the issue:

Hmph, assuming it's a bearing but I am struggling to find this area on the parts catalogue PDF.

Anyone can point me to the area with a PN?
 
This is the part
