Here's a picture of my Aussie (same as lock-right). The outer splined pieces go on the axle shafts, the inner pieces are called "drivers", the crosspin passes through the drivers which have a slightly oval hole, when power is applied the crosspin forces the 2 drivers outwards and locks them to the side gears, when you let off one side is allowed to uncouple for turning. And they're the greatest thing since sliced bread
