For years i have driven manual 4x4's and it was just a simple foot on the clutch and then slide your transfer box gearstick into the right areas....
Seems a little more of a fight with the gearstick in the auto... Is there a trick??.,...
does it have to be in nuetral or park??
Nissan Patrol i refer to>...

I slide the vehicle into neutral as it rolls to a stop with the wheels pointing forward, then try to shift out.
If there's reisistance, slip it into drive and move off slowly and repeat the process, but apply pressure to the 4wd lever as the vehicle's about to stop.
If still no joy, I make sure I'm on a soft surface (ie not bitumen) and go for a drive making sure I turn a couple of times to left & right then coast in a straight line and have another go.
After all that I generally get there.
