Transfer Case Problems Please Help

Sence day one I got the car it had the transfer case death whine, or atleast I think it was that, however other then the whine there were no big problems with the car, the car has 49000 miles, and according to recipts the original owner had " transmission rebuilt with different gears and 4 puck clutch, rebuilt rear diff, and new lsd transfer case." installed under 5k miles ago. So I just figured it couldn't be the death whine considering all of that stuff was recently replace, I just figured it was maby some heavy duty racing transfercase/gears in the tranny.
So the other day I realized a huge leak comming from the transmission area under the car, I had it towed to a local transmission shop, and they claimed all the fluid in the transfer case leaked out and got into the transmission overflowing the transmission fluid and that was the reason I had the leak, they also claimed that the whiny noise was due to the bearings on the transfer case, now I think there full of complete bull****.

I think the whine in comming from rack and pinion in the transfercase, meaning I need a rebuild or a new transfer case.

My main concerns is I dont have alot of money right now because I just payed off both my credit cards, and I dont wana spend money on the wrong parts,

Thank you for taking the time to read this and any help would be appreated thank you.

You can not put an ACD on your evo because you would need an ECU for acd, and a pump. Turning an non ACD evo to an ACD evo is not worth it and will cost a lot of money.

If you were to get another transfer case, just a non ACD tc with LSD in it.

As for fluid leaking into the transmission, I'm not even sure if thats possible. Anyone care to chime in?....
