vacuum lines and 4x4 and a/c problems

well i finally got my project ram wreck to a suitable driving point, the only problems i can find is that the 4wd is not lighting up in the cluster, so i think its somthing to do with those vacuum lines on it, i crawled under it and the metal lines that that come from the chunk dont have any lines at the end of them, where do i need to hook to in order to get my 4wd working.

the a/c only blows out the defrost, maybe its something to do with the 4x4 problem, but i pulled the glove box and messed with the the door i could move it but it would just go back down.

any help sortin this stuff out is greatly appreciated

With the rotted hose to the 4x4 actuator, causing a vacuum leak. I'm not completely sure where the actuator is, so all I can say is look around the transfer case.

AC doors not working correctlly indicates loss of vacauum. Check hose from vacuum pump backward too cowl and accross to right. Then back into cab.

the actual actuator for the 4x4 is on the passenger side of the axle.
