Whelp, 209k miles, and it certainly sounds like the T case needs a rebuild.
I see various kits online; it sounds like cards in spokes, which leads me to a bearing.
Any recommendations?
I've never ventured into A case yet; I really don't know much internally about them.
Thanks, fellas.

This video may be helpful, just to get an idea of what’s involved.
2014 RAM 3500 (Aisin) 3.73 4X4 Limited Crew Cab Long Bed DRW. Oil Bypass Filter, Fuel Filtration Kit, Cold Air Intake, City Diesel Actuator and 50 Gallon Aux Fuel Tank.
Transfer cases are pretty simple to rebuild.
Get a spec sheet and go for it.
2021 Ram 3500 DRW, H.O., bypass oil filtration, bypass coolant filtration, S&B CAI, 4:10’s
2wd low loc kit.
Reacquired 2001 3500, 5.9 nv4500, dually cab and chassis, 5” straight pipe, edge juice w/attitude. Otherwise all stock…..for now.
They are pretty simple to rebuild.
Even more so if it’s a manual t-case.
Most of the ones I’ve opened up need a chain.
The bearings and gears are pretty stout.

It's an oddball sound I hear.
It seems to be a Metal click sound which could be the chain stretch and slight skipping on the sprockets.
The Trans guy said it could be from the bearing going bad.
Hard telling, I give him the truck the 2nd week of October to verify.
Thanks

Minor update: replaced both u-joints on the rear drive line and the rear pinion seal.
All vibration is eliminated; however, the sound is still there.
It only does it in 2nd gear, 10-20mph.
I've locked it in and out in all gears; as soon as it shifts to 3rd or 1st, there is no sound or chatter.
I hope it could be trans-related, as I have a warranty to lean on.
Checked the fluid level in the transfer case; perfectly fine and pink.
If you have any other suggestions anyone wants to throw at me, I'm all ears.
Even in 4wd, the sound is still present in 2nd gear.
