jack it up, look for loose stuff. if its that bad, there will probably be some **** pretty much hanging off there. shouldnt be hard to find...if nothing is real obviously loose or broken, go somewhere and get a 4 wheel alignment.

my rear end does the same, like if I hit a bump going straight it jumps out to the right.. I've gotten used to it..
but I've been told it's a combination of worn suspension and possibly a broken diff mount.. but the diff does not clunk or anything.
