Default Unholy tcase noise

I just installed a 4.5 inch lift on my XJ and had some vibes. Had the tcase drop put in, and darn near all of the vibes went away. The only time I got vibes was in 30-35 MPH, and they are barely noticeable, and nothing I was concerned about. Well I was diving today, and for ****s and giggles I put it in 4WD. Dear Jesus did my tcase not enjoy that. It was ok most if the time, but when it got in the 30-35 MPH range it screamed bloody murder. What the heck is going on?

Time to crack the case and look for signs that your chain is stretched. Look at the pads on the mode and shift forks while your in there too.

Oh good, so nothing difficult... ok I'll do some research about tcase's (I don't know much about them) and see what I can do.

I will say that when the rear tires spin for traction, I have heard a horrible grinding noise coming from the tcase. Is this most likely related?
