Is there an article somewhere that details what occurs when 4HI is selected? I'm familiar with the Dodge CAD system, but don't have an idea how the GM system works.

Thanks.

Front axle collar is locked via electonic solenoid and transfer case mode fork is moved engaging the front driveshaft.

So the spiders are being driven by one of the front shafts while in 2x?

The right axle is disengaged in 2wd. Yes, the spiders spin. Driven by the left wheel/axle.
