Odds are the diaphragm is shot, in the central axle disconnect (CAD). You need to check if you have vacuum at the front axle, and if the vacuum switches from side to side, when you engage four wheel drive. If it does, your CAD is bad. If not, trace your vacuum lines to find the leak.
The Dodge Dakota pickup truck has CV joints on both front wheels. The pickup truck also has a driveshaft, as it is rear wheel drive.
It is either rear wheel drive or 4wd.

probably a vacuum system leak. Older dodge trucks had the front transaxle engage by a vacuum line. Make sure your pump is working, and that there are no leaks. Then it should engage
Check for vacuum leaks,
howdo you change the front axel of a dodge Dakota 2000 4x4
Sounds like it might be the vaccum switch on the front axle.
if you have removed rear drive shaft and the front wheels will be on tow dolly then there is no sense in it.
The 2001 Dodge Dakota with the 2.5 liter 4 cylinder is REAR WHEEL DRIVE
