What are the differences in the suspension for the 01-04 2wd & 4wd

I am just trying to figure out what the differences are for the 2wd suspension and the 4wd suspension. For example; on the front, does the 4wd have a completely different setup or is it the T-bars adjusted at the factory to sit higher? For the rear, is it different leaf springs or are the shocks just different? These may be stupid questions for some of you, but I am really interested in finding out what the differences are. Thanks for any responses.

I know the shocks and control arms are different for sure. I was looking into it quite a bit when I was thinking about lifting my truck.

Thanks for the info.
I have read about and seen a few trucks on cardomain where they did a T-bar adjustment to raise the front end and put on different rear shocks to make clearance for larger tires. They looked like 4wds just based off the ground clearance and yet they were only 2wd. This is why I was asking. I just wanted to know the difference. I would like for my truck to sit up like the 4wds, but don't nessecarily want 4wd or have any need for it either. I think it makes the truck look more agressive and would like larger tires(future mod).
