Most Jimmies use a vacuum ball to engage the front diff in 4 wheel drive. It will be located in the engine compartment mounted to one of your fender wells (changes from year to year). Make sure that the vacuum line from the ball to the diff is in good shape and is not leaking.
Probley have a bad 4x4 Actuator in the front left side of the differential HOUSING. It is towards the center of the housing on the left when standing in the front of the truck.

my 1989 Chevy 4x4 front differential wont engage any idea on how to trouble shoot the solenoid on the front pumpkin would be great
Have your actuator on the front right axle tube checked
check your torck coverter lock up check your cable adjustment on your passing gear drive safe
my hood on my 1990 chev 1500 will not lock? I just replaced the grill and hood as a blazer jumped out of gear and backed into my front end!
no it wont hurt the jimmy
did you get out of your vehicle and physically lock the hubs on the front wheels? there automatic locking hubs.
It sounds like you need a new actuator. there is two things that lock in when you use 4x4. one is the transfer case and the other is the front diff. the front diff is turned on by an actuator. if you have a problem with the actuator the front axles wont lock in. even though the transfer case is engaged.
When u find out why then let me know cause my 97 does the same thing.
