Default problem with 4wd

I have a silverado k2500 1993, 6,5td.
When I put the shifter in 4wd nothing happends. I've tried changing the solenoide for the front axle but the problem didn't go away.

if I shift from 4wd to 2wd when driving, i hear som noises from the front axle also. Anyone having som ideas what can be wrong?

you truck doesnt have hubs, there is a pod (i dont know what it is exactly on a diesel, but on a gas truck it is a vaccum pod) that engages the front diff they fail
