I see you got a 2000 also. I was just looking over the TSBs and noticed two that kind of describe symptoms I have and was curious if you have these issues.
One TSB is gear train noise in passenger compartment and the TSB calls for a shaft replacement in the TC and adding a noise mat to the floor board. I notice at highway speeds like up around 70mph I start to hear a vibration type noise and you can hear it in the back. Checked all my diffs and drive shafts everything seems kosher so thinking it has to do with this TSB. It's hardly noticeable but I hear everything. You have any issues with this? Another one is keyless entry remote works intermittently, another issue I have.

I do 70-80mph daily in mine, no drive line vibes. My transfer case lever vibes a bit, just too lazy to check it out. My key less entry is also hit or miss, I'm assuming it's the remotes but never looked any deeper into it. I literally have to be night next to the truck for the remote to work sometimes.

Yea mines the same way. I find re locking it first then hitting unlock works 9 out 10 times. My lever vibrates too and annoys the heck out of me when I'm sitting at lights but not usually when driving. I just push the handle or lift it up a bit. I got under it and looked at linkage and it definitely has some play in it but I haven't tried anything either yet to fix it. It's cold and a pain to reach.
