Transfer case jumping out of gear

Ok, so i just read the tread on setting up the preload on the transfer case rear output shaft and now i have a question / potential worry.

When going doing a bouncy sand wash in 2wd and my foot on the throttle I have had the transfer case jump out of gear a few times. When i changed the output shaft recently, I did not set the preload as precise as described in the other thread. I set it by feel. Would/could this be the problem with my case jumping out of gear? What damage will it do if the preload is too loose? Thanks in advance. CK

2wd high at various speeds. I am sure it came out of gear with my foot in the throttle and not when i lifted for a brief second.
