My van will jerk at a constant speed of 45MPH or more. It is a continuous jerking motion and will sometimes make clanking noises. Is this typical of a rear axle issue or something more like the U joint or drivetrain?

Check the whole drivetrain. It could be more like ujoints or center support bearing if yo have one.
