Ok no more clues.

Pulled the transfer case out slightly from the transmission and a pile of powdered rust fell out between the transmission and transfer case. Found the splines of the transmission and transfer case completely dogged and rusted out. There are multiple splines/teeth missing from the transfer case and transmission.

It appears here is supposed to be an o-ring on the transfer case housing to prevent water from contaminating the shafts, but the o-ring was not there. Since this is the first time it has been pulled on this car, it would appear this is an assembly fault by Mitsubishi.

Will get pictures soon.
