On the weekend i couldn't select high lock or low lock and we were stuck in the middle of nowhere! The shifter would not budge at all. We did the normal windup check by reversing etc but still no good.
We then had to do the kowmung firetrail (blue mountains) in the wet across the kowmung and all of the hills etc in high range. All the way to Yerranderie...
Finally got home last night and found a few instructions on how to fix the prob. Thought id post it up as it seems common for 95 series Prados so hopefully peeps can benefit if it happens to them out on the trails.
The prob is, when the transfer is hot the selector jumps out of align and then it is jammed in a position which will not allow you to move it at all.
these should help:

I am considering buying another spring from toyota to keep in car as it is a bit bent and might happen again.
hope this helps,
