I got it solved.
Last piece in the puzzle was a faulty batterycable. Manged to jerry-rig past it with an old jumpercable while I wait for my store to get some cables for me.

It's very cool if this is one of the...
My google-fu is amazing, I figured it out by going to the youtubes.
I pulled the shifter motor and lo' and behold, the bushing was shot. The axel was stuck between 4Hi and 4Lo.
