Driveline Slop?

I have a 07 Nismo CC 4x4 with about 18000 miles and I've noticed some slop in my drivetrain. If I'm cruising down the freeway if I lift off the gas and then immediately tap the pedal again nd feel a clunk in the drivetrain. Is this normal for this truck? Thanks!

Mine did it. I say did it because now that my lift is on and have bigger tires, its almost gone. Its still there, but barely noticable. Its not as violent or audible anymore. Guess the height corrected the pinion angle enough.

Thanks for the replies guys, saved me from a worthless drop off at the stealership. I always thought RWD vehicles would have some slop (even the BMW has a little) but not like my Nismo had. Guess it's normal.
