Price sound OK although I'm not sure what the market is like.

Find a good, reputable four wheel drive shop and take it in for a thorough inspection. If possible find one that knows Land Rovers. This should locate most normal problems

One specific thing to look at is backlash in the transfer case. Prior to about mid '94 there was a design flaw which prevent lub. from getting to the input splines and they wear out.

Of course, take it out and make sure the transfer case works properly.
