is it the turn dial 4x4 selector or the manual selector?if its the dial it could be a bad motor that engages the hubs.It could be the vacuum switches in the engine compartment on the passenger side,with ours it was the one that kept it in 2 wheel drive that was gone, vented vacuum so 4x4 would not pull in.
