It certainly wont hurt to add some rev-x. You can add it at any time. Though if you're close to oil change time, just wait it out.

Not being a smart *** but have you checked the lug nuts. Years ago I had a tire shop change my tires from to summer to winter (company car) and they never tightened the rear lug nuts down. Didn't notice it until the I drove it and then let off the gas.

Try spinning the rear drive shaft. Sometimes the rear ends just get some play built up on them. My 97 ranger was like this, always clunked. The factory LSD just had seen better days. Never gave me any issues other than that though.
