Yeah but does that gasket seal the fluids from the two? Ive never had a 208 off the truck, but the 203 I had off had a gasket, but it left the center of the T-case adapter open and used a seal on each end. One in the case and one in the trans. Least I think there was one in the trans. I know the T-case had one for sure. Its been awhile. There is a bearing in there on the 203 doesnt that ride in ATF?
