94 should be a push button setup on the dash for the 4wd. Are you saying that when you engage the 4x4 the front axles do not engage?
Is it the driveshaft from the transfercase that does not engage the front differential?

Suggested Repair

If the vehicle has automatic hubs, suspect the automatic hubs. The driveshaft spins when push-button 4x4 is engaged, but the axles do not spin.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 1994 Eddie Brauer with dash push-button 4x4 reports that the driveshaft spins when four-wheel drive is engaged but the axles do not spin at all. After confirming that symptom, the expert said the automatic hubs should be suspected if the vehicle has them.
