Varnished clutches in the transfer case. Typical fix is to do tight figure eight in a parking lot for a while and change the oil.
Get the correct oil from BJ's off road.

Jeep quadratrac cases have a small limited slip differential in the case. The np203 doesn't.
The limited slip clutch is known to varnish up and cause the jerkyness. The figure eight thing helps break up the varnish on the clutches.

De Nada. Own both transfer cases, have owned several of the q tracs over the years. It pretty normal but lots of people think it means rebuild time.
Np203 behind automatic transmission are usually smooth, but behind a stick they also get jerky. Just the nature of the beast.
