Clunk at stop...Any ideas?

Recently I have developed a weird situation. Truck drives fine, shifts fine, etc. When I come to a stop at a stoplight or stop sign I feel and hear a sort of "clunk" right before the truck stops. It seems as though it occurs right before the downshift back into 1st gear. All of my u-joints look ok. I removeed the driveshaft and greased the spline by the carrier bearing. All of my u joints are Spicers and trans was rebuilt at 145,000. Truck has 200,000 on the clock now. Any ideas what this clunk could be? T.I.A.

Try shifting the trans into neutral before stopping to be sure the torque converter is unlocking correctly.
