Were you moving or stopped? Sometimes if there's a load on it it can bind so try moving slowly when you shift.

It's a simple linkage, just the one from the shifter to the transmission.

If the linkage won't move then it's an internal problem. You'll have to disassemble the transfer case - or swap it out.
