Thank God For Manual Hubs!!!
Just drove for 50 mile with the 4x4 high engaged, it would not disengage..Finally it growled a little ( like a bad gear change) and disengaged..
Before I start the search, anything you all would recomend I look at first??

Did you try backing up to disengage it? Sometimes it gets bound up to the point it wont disengage right away so you need to pop it in reverse to relieve the pressure. It can even happen with the floor shifter.

Well, on the electrical side of things, you can check out the ESOF relays, shift motor, wiring, etc. Check for loose or bad components.
Why not change out the fluid too? AFAIK, the stuff in mine was original (156k) and came out kinda brown. I'm not sure if low or dirty fluid would make shifting out of 4wd difficult.
