Sounds like a loose shifter mount. Have you checked the linkage? Also, you shouldn't pause in Neutral on the transfer case when shifting to lo range. This causes the gears to spin at engine speed and you will grind them when shifting into lo gear.

I thought you worked at a dealer? Pop open the service manual and find out!
