Default wierd clunking noise coming from the back/middle of the car.

so my car has started to make some clunking noise, it sounds kinda like something metal hitting something else.
earlier in the year i went over a speed bump that was way bigger than it looked and my car scraped pretty bad, it made a rubbing noise every time i let off the gas, after a couple days it went away.
so i dont know if these two things are related or not. i have no idea how the clunking noise could have started, there are some pretty bumpy roads around here which could have started it, maybe knocked something loose.
also i have a wheel bearing that needs replacing, could that have something to do with it?

Default Jack the car up, get under the car, and push up and down on the center diff housing. See if there...

is play and possibly even clunking.
