Several noises coming from my driveline - the first is a metal "tink" sound that will occur when I let off the clutch.

Next is a ticking noise that will occur at low speeds under acceleration and it will disappear if I press the clutch pedal. As I speed up it gets more frequent until about halfway through second gear when it gets real quiet and disappears.

And the one thats just showed up in the past couple days is a "clunk" that occurs when I let off the clutch from a start unless I let off REAL easy. I can feel it in the shifter handle so I know its somewhere in the driveline.

Sound like u-joints? I also have the 2-piece driveshaft if that is of any importance.

This is on my 2WD 5spd dually.

I don't really know what to look for for wear in the driveline components so any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

You need to get under there and look. Put in neutral, chock wheels make sure drive line is relaxed, rotate it back and forth by hand, look for and lesson for any slop.
