I'm glad to see that they are back in production. I have one on my race truck, it works fine. Only thing I would have liked to see is a detent for neutral for towing. I added one.

now just what the fridge is that?
It replaces the electric shift motor on the transfercase.
It allows you to manually shift transfercase, of course by getting underneath the truck.

Thing about 4WD and the electric shift motor is that you never know it is broken until you need 4WD, and at that time it can be a VERY big disappointment.
