Broken shifter linkage would be my guess.

Climb under there with a flash light and let us know what you see. If possible have someone work the lever back and forth while you look.

When I got under and looked.....I found that the cross shaft of the shifter linkage had came out of the slot on the transfer case side. With a little prying I managed to get it back in the slot and working. The shifter is fine but the cross shaft is still loose.

Mine does the same thing. The slot in mine is a plasitc "button" thing and it's worn. I need to visit the stealership and get a new one, they can't be too expensive. I'm also looking at using a collar to hold it in there.
