Sounds like the rear end is wrapping up. This happens when too much torque is applied. When brakes are release, the rear suspension twist is released. Common area is center bolt in spring, shackles, torsion bars and spring perches.
Just a question ;
Could this jolt happen if the 12v power was disconnected , like removing the battery terminals to clean them ?
The ECU memory and throttle valve might be out of sync ? Could that be the cause of things wrapping up. If so, it could be a temporary condition until driving over time self corrects it.
No, you’re talking about things that aren’t even remotely related other than being attached to the same vehicle.
It is possible by some very small % that there could be a little axle wrap. However if there were components that were so worn or broken as described, there would be other symptoms assuredly and a little clunk at a stoplight would be far secondary to the primary symptoms. Of which the OP said there are no other suspension symptoms, noises etc while underway.
