Had to pull the transfer case and transmission to fix it. It definitely sucks when that kind of stuff happens. You over came it well though!
Thanks for the feedback. This kind of stuff never seems to go without some kind of issues. My wife actually motivated me to not give up. She told me I had no choice but to forge on and pull the transmission. I got right on it and here we are today. Hopefully there won't be too many more issues once I get it back. I'll try to be confident... but like I said, it's always something.
