I tore down the transfer case and inspected it. Bearings and shafts all looked good. The only damage I could find besides the pin hole worn in the back case by the oil pump was a damaged range shift fork pad. So I ordered a replacement case, pad and new seals and put it back together with the new updated oil pump housing and reinstalled it back in the truck along with a support brace.
Then I did a 4 wheel brake job, rotors and pads. Replaced a faulty air bag impact sensor. Then I replaced all the glow plugs. Next on the list, I will be removing the leaking steering gear box and replacing it with a rebuilt unit. Also going to replace the idler and tie rods while I'm at it.
Replacing the oil pump housing with an aftermarket housing that will correct the pump rub issue
Putting it all back together with a replacement case half.
Back in the truck. Installed a support brace as well.
