grab the top of your tire and shake it in and out, do this on both sides. it there is any play you wheel bearings could be done causing the grinding and clunking, trannys make some interesting noises when theyre on their way out too, it could be done. maybe even a motor mount is fried and letting something rub.

hmmm, dont know what to tell ya, if you jack it up and spin the wheel by hand does it make the noise? you could put it up on jack stands, start it and put it in gear so its driving in the air, if it still makes the noise go over everything with a mechanics stethescope. you should find the source of the sound then.
