Default RE: chirping around t-case

Most likely it is caused by a dry universal joint in one of the driveshafts. If it does it in both 2wd and 4wd, then it is the rear driveshaft. If you definitely have it localized to near the transfer case, then it probably is the front joint. I would remove the rear driveshaft and have a look at the universal joints.

The stock cups are held in by injected nylon which must be heated while in a press for removal.
