They are likely 1/8" or 3/16" vacuum lines. A quick measurement would tell you. There will be one line that runs from the engine to the vacuum switch. Another line that runs from the vacuum switch to the actuator. The third line is just a vent to release the actuator once the transfer case shifts out of either of the two 4wd modes.

And please take the time to use proper Spelling, Punctuation, & Grammar. Proper formatting of your post will make it easier for others to read and therefore will result in better responses. After all, everyone here that chooses to help does so on their free time.
