grinding when attempting to shift into 4wd hi

I bought a 1995 GMC Suburban 2500 SLT 4wd and noticed that when attempting to shift into 4wd hi or lo it grinds really bad and if I do get it into gear it drives really funny, like only 1 of the front and 1 of the rear axles are engaged??

maybe you are pulling it in too slow, as for feeling funny, can you describe it better?
