Do you pull a lever to shift into 4x4 or do you press a button on the dash for the 4x4, if it's the button type then more than likely the motor to engage the 4x4 is stuck, you will have to climb under the truck, and unplug it and clean the connections or tap the motor with a hammer to unstick it. It's a common problem, usually because the 4x4 isn't engaged very often. it should be checked for engagement every month or so, usually on loose gravel roads in the summer time.
