This is not the kind of adjustment you can do properly by trial and error. You will damage the ring and pinion and possibly the bearings. The clunk-clunk is a sign that it is too loose. You can just as easily overtighten it. The only way to get it right is to do it as per the procedure in the Workshop Manual. To do it you have to pull and disassemble the transmission. Don't drive on it until you can have the adjustment done correctly, you will damage some expensive parts.
