My first reaction was thinking it was my driveshaft. I'll check both out

I'm getting a noise to that's hard to trace down. I'm thinking it's the throwout bearing but was hoping to find some info on it here. when the Jeep is cold it doesn't make the noise it seems, but after it warms up its there. Taking off in 1st if I'm light on it there is no noise, but if i take off it does this terrible clunking sound. Same thing in 2nd and 3rd at lower rpms, it almost sounds like the noise when you stall a manual vehicle. I don't believe the clutch is slipping as it takes off normal, but this noise is terrible. Any help would be awesome.
