t-case shifter ridiculously loud
My transfer case shifter makes this noise/vibration that sounds/feels almost like its touching something that's spinning very quickly. If i push on the shifter it dampens it a lot, but it i can still hear it. I also noticed that its pretty much nonexistent between 0-30, but once i hit 30 it gets loud enough to be heard over my music. It tends to get much quieter after I hit 40-45 but its still somewhat loud. I searched and there wasn't much on the topic except relating to a 3rd gen. What the heck is going on?! I need to fix this before I take the 1200 mile trip home from college in 3 weeks.

0-20 = Nothing Really
20-30 = Steering wheel (or perhaps the whole column) begins to shake up and down (bouncing I guess you could say) and gets faster
30-40= Shifter begins to make loud noise like something is causing it to vibrate. once i push on it, it dampens the vibration in the shifter and the noise quiets.
40-45 = When I'm on the gas I get a loud, low pitched vibration/humming that you can feel throughout the whole truck. as soon as let off the gas, it stops.
45+ = I don't know, I hardly ever get up that fast haha.
Now that I typed that all out, for some reason I'm liking the u-joint suggestion.

Well, I just climbed under there and noticed I have some fluid residue on the back of the tranny right where it meets the u-joint/driveshaft...this doesn't sound so good.

Did a little more research and its amazing what you can find when you put the right words in...
