Dont worry about the awd thing. Get a selectable locking transfer case. It will not make a difference to the traction control at all. The dana 300 is a 2wd 4wd selectable transfer case with low gear. I installed twin sticks on it so that I can select 2wd front or rear hi or low and also 4wd hi or low. I also have the doubler in front of that(different ratio) to multiply the gearing even lower (Third stick). My traction control does NOT freak out ( even in front wheel drive). Nothing goes haywire. I do not have any warnings on in the dash or fault codes stored. My traction control and all other factory functions still all work as designed. I suggest this case because it is tough. Gear transfer cases are known to be stronger than chain. They also tend to be a lot smaller. Not much room underneath there. I did fab up a mount on the rear of the case to hold the weight. Not a big deal.
