Turn on the a/c... Turn on the 4x4. Does it go to defrost? If so you have a vaccum leak. If not can you manually engauge the hubs and get the transfercase to lock? Another thing to mention at low speeds sotf works but at higher speeds you have to let off the gas pedal and give it a few seconds to engauge.

The vaccum lines go into the knuckles on the front. It is highly possible that either a oring, diaphram or other item even the hoses could be the issue. With the ignition on and motor off engauge 4x4 and listen for the vaccum leak. Mine acted up a few times but everytime I try to diagnose it it starts working kinda of a pita
