How is the front drive connected to the transmission?

Very interesting little truck with a lot of detail. Looking forward to seeing more progress.

Great detail work. Very interesting subject.

Both shafts from transmission and axle go directly to the rear diff which has a modified front gearcase.

Thanks for the comments

That looks really life-like! I've never seen that AWD system before. Does the rear axle act as a transfer box? I'm assuming that the drive goes from the transmission to the rear diff then back out of the front of the diff into the front axle, the two driveshafts running alongside each other?

Both shafts go to the front of the rear diff.

A close up photo of the drive line would help a lot.
