Talking Drive train clunk when braking

I looked at all of the ujoint and they are fine. I have a slight clunk when I hit the brakes, and then when I hit the gas. If I hit the brakes hard the clunk is louder. Starting to drive me crazy, I was going to replace the center bearing to see if that is what it is.

Please don't tell me its in the t-case. Hoping it is an easy fix.

No one ever replied to this. I'm having a similar issue, what do you think it could be?

Default Clunk noise

Any chance it could be a hub???
I thought the noise I was having when braking could have been a warped rotor, but I haven't gotten word on it from the tech, who said the blown hub might have caused some noise when braking...

You say you hear a clunk. Do you feel it, maybe like it is under the floorboard? Could possibly be a bad body mount.

Default Clunk noise

The first thing I recommend is to remember if u have greased all the joints and ball joints also the H1 does not flex,only the suspension can flex,to be honest with all the years at the hummer dealer,most of the time it was lower ball joints,check all the steering components,not just look,you may have to use the biggest pribar you can find,you be surprise

Haven't logged in for a while. I was replacing the input seal to the driver side front hub. With doing this I had to replace the shim for the input seal holder. After the job the cluck when I was breaking is gone. When it was clunking it would only do it after a certain intensity of braking, if I braked hard it would clunk right away, if I was braking soft if would clunk when I was almost stopped.

Anyways, its gone and my hub isn't leaking anymore.

Thanks guys
