Clunking on take off/stopping

Mine clunked when I got new trailer. Same hitch and truck at the time, never clunked on old trailer dealer, claimed brakes were fine. I took service mgr. for a ride. hit brake control and no braking was felt. Only braking was from the truck. They adjusted them and clunking disappeared! might not be your problem but worth a check. If you haven't already!

The OP says he "thinks" he has movement, I would check that out first and see if indeed there is slop in the jaws. If not the jaws I'd make sure I could figure out for sure if there's slop or whatever. As stated earlier movement isn't good and should be addressed.

It's unnerving listening to something as substantial as a hitch and "hoping" everything is alright. Just my two cents. ...As mentioned before "silence is golden".
