I haven't spun the wheels by hand when jacked up very fast, but when slow spinning I don't hear it. I will do that while I jack it up to check the front output seal on the transfer case. Thanks for the input.
Not the input, the output side
I'm about 90% sure you won't be able to get it to do it in the air; there has to be load on it on mine. But I've determined that it's definitely a rubber noise, and definitely from the t-case region, and only happens when the hubs are locked, and I looked and there's no boot there, so all I can thing of that's rubber there is the seal
If I had to guess, without things spinning all the time, the seal gets dry, and so then when you first start driving it/lock the hubs in, it'll squeak/chirp at you. It is incredibly irritating sometimes.
