Question

My transfer case has started making a horrible grinding noise. First I thought it was coming from the driveshaft or the front/rear diff, but wasn't sure. I put the truck on jack stands and put the truck into gear and determined it was definitely the transfer case.
In the first video, you can really hear it start as soon as I put it in gear (@ 5sec), and then I rev up the engine and let off and can really hear it (@ 30sec) - this is how it sounds running down the highway about 50-60mph. I put it into 4WD (@ 1min) just to verify it's not just doing it in 2WD and it's doing it in 4WD as well. Later in the vid I switch it to Auto4WD (about 1:45) and it's doing it there too.
Another angle, I could also feel it by touching the case (@ 25sec) that it was indeed from the transfer case so my ears were not deceiving me.
I checked the fluid level it and it is just below the fill hole, so the noise is not from lack of fluid. What could it possibly be, loose chain, or...?
I have a service appt tomorrow morning to have it checked over, but didn't know if anyone would have a better idea what the problem is inside that I can tell the service technician so they aren't spending all day hunting for the answer.
