w124 Clunk from rear when braking

[mike 420]

I have a clunk clunk clunk...comming from the rear under braking in my 87.No problems when going over bumps and not all the time.Any thoughts?

I would say look at the rotors and if there is a ridge have them turned. It would catch that edge in certain situations and make plenty of noise.
