Clanking and banging from real right tire blown strut or shock? 1991 240 200 1990

It doesn't sound like you should do anything till you actually determine what's wrong. Even if the spring is worn and sagging it wouldn't cause the banging you describe. A broken spring might do that but should be easy to see. Sounds more like a blown out trailing arm bushing--the big one under the rear axle. Look again with a lamp--look at the cross bolt relative to the diameter of the bushing--it should be dead center. Have someone gently push on the rear bumper while you look to see if the movement of the crossbolt seems to be independant of the bushing.
