I would start by blocking the wheels and putting it in neutral. Then I 
would get under and inspect the u-joints for any sign of rust coming out 
of the caps and I would be twisting and pu****ng on each one looking for 
slop or play.

Only 0 for play or slop is acceptable. If there is rust coming out of a 
cap, the bearings are done and it needs a new one.

The clips would change the driveshaft angles or 'align' it.  This is 
likely only needed if you change your springs for a different height and 
experience vibes.
