Squealing noise or a rattle?
Mine had a squeal/shriek when under acceleration, but only a little bit in fourth, and always in fifth.
I put in another transfer case for other reasons and it went away.
When it makes its little noise, put your hand on the transfer shifter and see if you can feel a vibration coming through it, or is it coming through the gearshift lever, or neither?
Try getting it up into 5th with the transfer in neutral. If it is still there it is probably gears. If not, it might be the transfer.

like in the driveway without actually driving it anywhere?my GUBanzy wrote:Dial up internet.........you'd post something and come back 2 beers later to see if it loaded.
Yep, in the driveway.
It won't go anywhere, and there will be no drive coming through the transfer, so if the noise is still there, it probably isn't the transfer.
Mind you, it might not be there at all, even if it is not the transfer, as it might only happen under the load of pushing the vehicle. But still, it might eliminate one or two areas, and help narrow down the problem.
