When I'm driving up a slight incline or hill at a decent speed I hear something that sounds like a knock,clunk,thump from what sounds like under the jeep. Once I level out it goes away. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Easiest way to diagnose this kind of stuff is with an action cam under the car. Sometimes it requires a lamp too, thanks to youtube there are tons of decent claws, magnets, clamps, etc on the market cheap for mounting cameras and lamps anywhere. Set your camera for a 60FPS or better if you have a decent one.

I got an ApexCam action camera and a magnetic mount on Amazon for less than $50. Works better than my brothers $200 GoPro... but his GoPro is a few years old, he still would loan it to me when I told him I wanted to stick it to the underside of my Pat while I was driving. Can't say I blame him. It has helped me diagnose a problem or two.
