It can be shifted in and out as needed. It's going to come standard with some kind of shift lever but their goal is to introduce an electric shifter for it if they can get the electric shifter's cost down from what it is so far.

I also asked the AA guy about making this for other auto trannies like the 32RH or AW4 and he said it'd be tough if not imposible. He said the reason is that the 42RLE has a 2-piece output shaft which allows the Rubi Crawler's reduction gearing to mate up easily, while the 32RH and AW4 have a 1-piece shaft that wouldn't work for it.
