Need a Spot

I bought an 87 Samurai that ran and shifted perfectly. I put the trans in 2nd, and the transfer case in N per the owners' manual, and towed it 20 miles home. When I tried to drive it, I moved the lever from N to 4wd, and it stuck somewhere in between and won't be budged. The lever will not shift at all. The front driveshaft is turning but I'n unable to move forward or back. What now?

87 JX Zuke bone stock almost cherry
86 Heavy Chevy 350 one ton 26' RV

There's always time to do it over.
