The low gear in the transfer case could be binding up. Maybe? That's a weird one.

Is it that the engine is really struggling or does it seem as if there is just no throttle?

When the wrench light comes on, what does the code reader say? If you haven't checked and don't have a code reader, you should go to an auto parts store and have them pull the code.
