If the 93 is stuck in 4x4 (or sometimes won't go into 4x4) have someone hit the button as you tap on the 4x4 motor with a hammer. If it moves you know you need to rebuild your motor (usually it is just taking it apart and cleaning it).. Even if it doesn't move, that is a very common problem (motor get gummy inside)

There are a few good threads on rebuilding the 4x4 shift motor on here...

If you are really in a bind you can take the motor off and rotate the shift lever by hand to take it out of 4x4 and back into 4x2.
