When the four-wheel drive (4WD) is in neutral on a Jeep, the front drive shaft does not rotate. In this position, the transfer case disconnects the front and rear drive shafts from the powertrain, allowing the wheels to rotate independently without power from the engine. However, if the transfer case is in 4WD and the vehicle is moving, the front drive shaft would still rotate.
