Might want to check u-joints, just had to replace one on front drive shaft, not sure what the newer trucks have, but there is a double one at the transfer case that was known to cause many issues, it had on mine 6 years ago and I found it easier and cheaper to buy a remanned shaft assembly.

Kinda sounds like what happened to a coworkers truck. he never had any trouble with his untill one day he put it in 4 WD and it started banging and not pulling. The fluid had drained out of the transfer case somehow. he said he had never seen a leak. Had to put a new gear in it. the chain was okay. He claimed this could be done without pulling the transfer case. I hope it is something more simple than this.
