I think you might have missed a nut on the bottom. I did the same thing, when I went back and removed it, it slid off like butter.

Either a bigger hammer or dynamite.

All kidding aside, if all bolts as noted above have been removed, you have something binding. Try wiggling the transfer case up & down and back & forth, while pulling & pushing.

The idea is not to let it hang by its weight unsupported. If you can get a floor jack that has wheels under it, put a 2 X 4 on the jack pad and take up the weight of the Xfer case. This might help get the bind out if that is what it is.

I'm just throwing out ideas/guesses here. Good luck. Let us know.

There is a nut you didn't take loose. Check it again

If you get all the nuts off it should practically fall into your arms. There is no trick to it.

I'll bet those two particular nuts are the strong ones that keep the Jeep from breaking in half.
