I'd jack the back end up and spin each wheel by hand. You'll feel and hear if it's the brakes or echoing from the rear differential..

If you are talking about a periodic hesitation like something is holding the vehicle back (then letting it go) again and again when turning the vehicle right or left - then the front axle (not transfer case) is staying locked in.
