The axle does not go into the transfer case, it goes into the differential, of which you have two. There is a front and a rear differential. Also, describe loose. Does it engage with the spider gear, will it turn the drive shaft?? You should be able to see if it's working by watching the gears as someone turns the axle. If it turns things, it's OK.
