Clanking/thumping is usually one of the rear support rollers.
Often it is a flat spot on the roller that is not very obvious.
Also check the support shafts.

Not a bad idea to also look at where the rollers run on the drum, sometimes crud, lint etc. can stick there and cause a thumping.
Check that the seam on the drum is OK.

Another area that can cause thumping are the front and rear drum seals.
