Coincidently, I am just now in the midst of replacing my axles, (or 1/2 shafts), for what sounds like the same problems. The splines in the axles were worn and allowed the two halves to rotate and make a 'clunk' noise. Eventually they began to flex and vibrate at mid-high speeds. So it IS possible you've got the same problem going on.
