Rear axle/brake clunk when shaking wheel.

Yeah. Everything is tight. When you shake the rear wheel it rattles just like in the video. My Mustang with its c-clip 8.8 doesn't rattle at all but maybe that is because of the disc brakes.

I don't think I'd worry unless you had a lot fo in-out or side-side play in the wheel. Around 1/8" in-out play seems normal for the D35 c-clip axles. Just a side effect of the axle shaft not being firmly held by a pressed on bearing and the only thing really holding it in being the clip.
