This-we do not need electronics to engage a transfer case. If somebody is too lazy to pull a lever, perhaps the Wrangler isn’t the vehicle they should be driving. Straight, mechanical stuff is far more likely to continue working under adverse conditions that electronic geegaws. When that little switch croaks in the middle of nowhere you are out of luck. Mark my words, the undoing of most of todays vehicles will be when they age and some stupid, minor component will fail at put the out of action. A couple years ago the wife’s very expensive Kenmore Elite stove’s oven quit working. A little electronic box the size of a pack of cigarettes failed, the part was no longer available, nor could it be repaired. A $2500 range that looked like new was junked because the over no longer workedLove the shifter. However, Jeep’s implementation sucks. Ever drive a 4Runner? They also have a lever (on off road trims) and it shifts like butter. Really beautiful action.
Keep the shifter but make it better.
