Yay, an update!

..about how unhappy I am.

So I had my T-case rebuilt by MAP (great job, good service, I'm sure it's an excellent T-case). Judging by the whining and how the car acted it seemed the t-case was the clear culprit. Sadly, this was not the case and I've somewhat wasted a good amount of money. Not really "wasted" because having a new beefed up t-case is never bad, but in this case was completely unnecessary.

I'm not sure where to go from here, the rear diff maybe, but it doesn't have any usual signs of that going out (no binding, the sound doesn't change with turning, etc.). Could something in the drive-shaft or an axle be causing this?

I'm SO god damn excited to find a bad bearing somewhere that costs $50 to fix.. uhg. Totally flustered, silly me to think I could call the shot on a problem like that.
