Default Tanny and Transfer case

Ok so I need some advice please. I just changed my clutch in my 1996 xj. I can not get the transfer case into 2H. It was in 4L at some point while working on it I am sure. Is there a safety or trick to get it back into 2H? I had an explorer you had to drive in reverse to disengage the transfer case. So you know the clutch is not engaging I think the fork sliped off as I can move it with my finger with ease. I am attempting to fix the clutch engagment issue tomorrow. Thanks in advance everyone.

It might not shift until you put power to the drivetrain. Try it after you fix the clutch.

Ok so I had printed pictures from the internet and hooked up linkages like they show. They were 180 degress off. That is why it was not working. However now I still can not shift the jeep into gear while engine is running. It is like the clutch is not engaging. I have installed and bled the slave cylinder and still no help. Any help people?
