Default Loud clunking sound when letting off throttle

I'm getting a loud clunking sound when I let off the throttle, if I am in the power when I do it.

It's pretty noticable when shifting.

I looked around the exhaust, and it doesn't seem that it's hitting anything. Since I get the sound when car is cold and warm, I don't think it's the exhaust expanding, and then hitting something. (I've had the exhaust for a year)

I have a DTS, but it appears to be fine.

Wondering if I hosed the snub mount, or something like that.

Sounds like a snub mount failure.

Or a side mount.
