Loud grinding noise under load, transfer case maybe?

I think I will change the rear diff fluid as DodgeRam23 suggested. I see the rear pumpkin around the fill plug wet. Any idea how to get this to seal up.
Also I am thinking my catalytic converter may be plugged, as It seams to not accelerate very well and feels like there is a loss of power. Maybe one of these are causing the vibrating, rumbling noise that I heard.

Yup. You can find them here. (and various other places.) If your truck is high-mileage, wouldn't hurt to check how much chain slop you have as well. I know in my 96 with 200K miles, 4wd is all but useless, as the chain is stretched so much, it slips on the gears.
What kind of symptoms does the loose chain give off other than not holding in 4x4

If it's really bad, it'll slap the inside of the case...... Mine is only noisy in 4wd, perfectly quiet in 2wd. If it is growling all the time, need to see what's going on, before it blows up.
