there is a tag on the back side where you put the fluid in. if its gone. 81-87 had 208 they had a alum. case then 73 -80 had 203 and 205. 203 are full time so your drive line never stops moving they were in i think 73 - 75 i think, then they went to they 205 which is what most guys like.

Okay so my truck probably has a 208 then because it is a 85.

look at it. if it look like Aluminum its a 208 plus theres a tag on the back side where u put in the Fluid, a 208 uses ATF no gear lube. if u put gear lube in u will burn up the pump in side.
