the kj 4x4 system

[liberty84]

ok so as yall know I'm a noobie to the 4x4 world and I'm trying to understand the system of the kj I don't know much about it cuz my kj is 2wd so,
what I know is that the rear shaft is shorter on the 4wd cuz the t-case is at the end of the ******, what I don't understand is how is the front diff. conected, is there a shorter shaft that goes from the t-case to the front diff???

also I've seen many pics of the diff. off the jeep and it seems that has only one arm (the right one) why is that?

if anybody can explain me this I will appreciate it, and if yall have pics of your 4x4 kj I would love to see them

thankx ppl

Picture 3 is the end of the cv joint sticking through the spindle with a 36 mm nut holding it to the hub/bearing.
