When i slow down to 20 mph as it shifts down it clunks. and as i am parked and i try to put it in gear it makes the same clunk sound.

it sounds like you may have a bad universal joint in one of the drive shafts,more likely in the main shaft that runs from the transmission to the rear differential.

Clunking in rear end of 1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4.0L

chances are it's either in the transfer case or differential. Since it's easy to remove the rear cover on the differential, I' d look there first. If you remove the driveshaft and get both rear wheels off the ground you can turn the assembly and inspect the gears. If it's not in the gears, then you know where to look....And, check those u joints too!

2004 Jeep Wrangler - Clunking Noise when shifting out of Park

It could be lash in the differential which is normal, but it could also be a loose u-joint in the driveshaft. Check the rear driveshaft u-joints.
