So, I just noticed a sound that has gotten worse (I think). It is a grinding noise. It only happens around 45mph and above, and only sporadically when not on the gas. I noticed it more after I fixed a broken trans mount. My set up is as follows:
2001 TJ
242j transfer case with no linkage hooked up
AX-15 mounted with Novak mount
8.8
All fluids are full
Rear driveshaft was made by me, but never had an issue with it, new u joint, no play
Front driveshaft is not currently in
My first thought was that I knocked the transfer case lever on the case itself. I have it shifted in what would be the 2wd position for a 231, I assume it's the same for the 242. Please correct me if I am wrong... This is the diagram I used.

My next thought was that the transfer case chain is stretched. Is there a test for this?
Thanks
Mitch
