The front tires ( the unpowered ones) lock up first, along with the one rear tire that is not being powered. In most cars, the rear tire with the least traction is the one that gets the power.

Is four-wheel-drive the same as all-wheel-drive?
Yes, assuming the car has four wheels, four-wheel-drive is the same thing as all-wheel-drive. Not always, four wheel drive provides a positive lock between the front and rear axles. All wheel drive has a differential between them most of the time.
How do lock out hubs on a 4 wheel drive work?
The hubs lock the axel to the hub, which drives the wheel. With the transfer case in 2WD, the rear driveshaft drives the rear wheels. Without front hubs, in 2WD, as the front tires roll, they spin the axles and the front driveshaft. With lock out hubs, in 2WD and the hubs unlocked only the tires spin. However, in 4WD if you forget to lock the hubs, only the driveshafts and axles spin. When I lived in MI, in the winter I always kept my hubs "locked", this way I could shift into 4WD whenever I needed to without getting out in the cold to "lock" the hubs.

Can you replace front tires only on a all time 4 wheel drive quad trac Jeep Cherokee Will a difference in diameter between front and rear tires damage the transfer case and or differential?
Can you as in are you able to? Yes if a tire shop will take the risk of doing it. Is it recommended? NO. I have personally seen this cause transfer case issues in Chrysler vehicles. The rule most will follow on this is that there can not be any more than 3/32" tread depth difference between any two tires on a four wheel drive vehicle. Especially an all time four wheel drive. On most lock in, lock out, 4wd vehicles it could be pulled off simply by not using the four wheel drive until you replace the other 2 tires. Its certainly not recommended but it can be done with minimal risk as your not changing the diameter of the tires being turned with force from the transfer case. However, when you're always in 4wd you ARE changing the rates at which each differential is turning, not signifacantly, but enough for a weak drive train (which Chrysler is known for) to take issue, and cause you very expensive drive train repairs. My best advice, bite the bullett and get 4. If you absolutely can't and must have new tires, plan to purchase the other two tires ASAP after replacing the front two. Just don't leave two different diameter tires on an AWD vehicle for an extended time.
