Xfer Case replaced = shift setup problem?

I replaced a demolished xfer case and u joints and odd bits in our 88 XJ. When I got her all together, fired it up and carefully drove up the street it seemed to be sluggish, as though it's in 4wd. Messing around, I discovered that when the 4wd shifter is in 4H I believe I'm in 2wd! I'm not sure how this might have happened other than I might have moved the linkage; is this just a linkage adjustment?
 
Did you cycle through it with a wrench to make sure everything was in working order? 2H-4H-N-4L while spining the input side by hand placing the shift link arm in the 2H location before installing it?
