Default 89 jeep cherokee dana 30.axle

So I have a dana 30 axle on my 89 jeep cherokee. I was replacing my wheel hubs. And noticed that when I set to 4x4 my axle spins still. I don't think it should...what could be wrong?

Co you have a central axle disconnect and is the engine running when you do?

So I will assume then you have a CAD, which is vacuum operated. Try it with the engine running
