Maybe you need a new lock washer or it is missing at the torque link.
I had a symptom of clunking that was alccompanied with brake "grab"
Just had to replace the lock washer because the old one was compressed flat.

Had the exact same clunking issue. That lock washer was missing on my bike. Apparently the last person that did a rear brake job on it lost the washer and just didn't think it was important enough to replace.

Put one on and immediately the clunking stopped.
