Question Mysterious Grinding Noise

I Lifted my 1999 Jeep Cherokee Sport 3" with a trailmaster lift kit and threw on some 31" Tires with 16" Rims. Just maybe a few days after I have been having a grinding noise coming from my transfer case and my rear axle and was wondering if this is because of the lift or the parts of wearing out. Do I need to upgrade the rear axle?

I would jack up the rear axle so both tires are off the ground and put the vehicle in drive and listen for any noise, how are the pinion angles? Could be u joints too. Sometimes a transfercase drop can help out with the angles a bit
