So... what is your question exactly?
I assume you are asking us what could cause the clacking sound.

COuld you describe the sound a little mor eclearly please.
Is it a rubbing noise, metal hitting metal, a grinding etc?
Does it only do it at slower speeds or higher speeds? You mentioned the tires not touching the body, this would have nothing to do with reverse as if that was the issue it would do it in forward gear as well.

Give us a bit more to work with please and someone might have the answer for you.

you didnt say if it was manual or auto trans but its possible that your reverse syncros are making that noise..i would say it was something broken but it would probably be making it all the time..possibly a chipped reverse gear?....i would flush your trans and put in honda mtf/auto fliud in and see if that helps...what tranny is it buy the way, i have a few haynes manuals i could look through maybe see something that could possibly give you an issue
