Lorin, only just got home, and catching up with your tribulations. It looks like you've got some sound advice already. Not much I can add really. TCs very rarely seem to let go in these trucks I have to say. But if it is that, they are not difficult to swap IF you have a ramp etc. I would think that second hand there are plenty around because there isn't much of a demand for them unlike say manual gearboxes. I have on sitting in the garage myself.
As to the transfer box, removal is very easy with a small set of tools. If it is that and you can get a spare box, fitting it is a question of about 3 plugs, one linkage and 7 bolts. Plus the prop. You could do it in 40 minutes.
I wish I could be more help. It's frustrating not being able to offer anything more for now.
