To get into 4Hi you can be moving slowly, me go about 5mph or less. To get into 4Lo you have to be in neutral and stopped. If it is not engaging now then you may have a vacuum leak or the encoder motor is not working.

There should be a vacuum tank under the battery tran and lines going to it, also there is a vacuum switch on the top of the transfer case on the drivers side that supplies the vacuum to the 4x4 actuator under the battery, also check the vacuum actuator to see of it holds a vacuum, if not then that is your answer. Make sure all the lines going into the tank are good.

I have a 93 K5 and I also have no 4H or 4L. The light on the transfer case shifter doesn't blink or turn on. Similar problem for me?
