I'd have to see what I have , normally I sell good used ones for about $75 for the output shaft and $75 for the viscous coupler (discontinued item, $1350 part cost)

So I pulled open the tcase that had the teeth stripped off. Everything looks good inside. So it must have been on the transmission side. I’m posting photos of the inside of the tcase

And how can I tell if the VC is bad?
 
Based on the condition of your tcase input sleeve splines, you likely have a smoked viscous coupler and center differential and output shaft.

I pulled out the VC. It looks fine, but I don’t know how to actually check it. It was a pain to get out. And I’m trying to get the 5th gear fork out but the spring pin is stuck. It won’t come out with a punch. Probably have to drill it out. And I went and got a 34mm socket to take the gear nuts off only to find out they are 36mm. So I have to go back and get another one.

I finally was able to pull the trans apart and it doesn’t look like anything is damaged or even scratched or loose. Shins aren’t work at all. And the spider gears are fine. I did post a few pictures for reference. I do see a small gap at the spider gears. Is that normal?
Also, before pulling the trans out, I noticed before I took it to the shop to have it looked at, that one nut was gone from the front carrier bearing and it was hanging about 2-3inches lower than it’s supposed to. So I tightened that up and the transfer case was missing the upper bolt. Could those be the reason the output shaft got damaged and the transfer case?
