Exclamation 97 manual shift 4x4 not engaging

As is the same with most of the others, it worked last year, but this year its not engaging. It was difficult to shift from 2w-high to 4w-high so I lubed up the links underneath with WD40 and shifted it back and forth a bit to work it in. It still won't engage the front wheels at all and the 4x4 light will not illuminate.

Any suggestions on where to look next would be appreciated. Again, its the manual 4x4 shift with an automatic transmission. Full towing package and xlt extended cab model if that makes any difference.

Just a side note, the 4x4 light does illluminate when the car is turned on, so I do know the light works.

Thanks!
