‘84 Westy, new 944(?) CV’s.

I have been using the Van as a daily driver for the last week (25 min/15 mile commute). During the first 5 miles a noticeable bump, bump sound eminates from the rear of the vehicle. Not sure if it’s the CV’s, an axle bearing, or otherwise. Only occurs when the van is moving so don’t believe it’s the engine, but maybe? The bump, bump sound kind of dissipates after a bit of driving. Thought maybe others have experienced same? Please advice and thanks! Long time subscriber/infrequent contributor (but that may change).
