89 T-case lever broke

Hello all!
Last snow fall, my t-case lever broke leaving my truck in four-high. I found that the lever is pot metal, and a somewhat common issue. My question is, how hard should it be to manually push the linkage into 2wd? I was able to get under there today, and couldn't get the thing to budge. Could it have been that the reason the lever broke was that there is a problem with the t-case, or do i need more leverage? Thanks!
89 F150 5.8, C-6, reg cab, 8ft box.

I'm missing that same lever, actually got the truck with it already missing. Anyway I can climb underneath and pop it in and out of 4x4 pretty easy so sounds like you might have a problem

Just noticed you have an Auto, not sure if we have the same transfer, mine is a 5spd on a 95....so maybe it's a bit different
