Well, the MARRIED transfer case is bolted directly to the transmission. There are TWO drive shafts one from the Transfer case to the Rear axle. ALso there is one from the transfer case to the Front axle.
Now the DIVORCED transfer case has a short driveshaft from the Tranny to the Transfer case. Also it has the other two driveshafts from the tranny to both front and rear axles.
In my opinion a MARRIED transfer case is MUCH MUCH stronger than a divorced transfer case. The reason for this is there are less driveshafts (less things to break). Also Most divorced transfer cases run much warmer due to the transfer case using it's own fluid instead of sucking it from the tranny!!!

I completely agree with that statement.

Dunno about that statement. If your transfer case is pulling fluid from the tranny you have a problem, especially if you're running an automatic. I've had to help a buddy more than once pull his NP205 on his 70' *cough* Chevy *cough* 3/4 ton due to bad mid seals in the t-case. It's a dead give away when you check your t-case fluid level and a couple quarts of gear oil comes shootin out.
