I drove an 18 wheeler for 15 yrs and know to take care of a clutch so I know it's not me.

I checked the trailing arm bushings and they seem to be ok. Also checked the pinion bearing for play and it's good. I'm totally lost at what else to do or check...
Tie the motor down. See if it helps. Turnbuckle is likely 10 bucks.
A remote possibility is a cracked frame. Found that once by tieing a motor down.
